I highly doubt it’s a programme to stupify the population. It would be pretty self-defeating to sink to the same low as the US in order to fend themselves off from the US I would think.
Agreed. Like I said, I just get cagey whenever “patriotism” is used in education/laws. Obviously my life as a US citizen and our constant attempts to whitewash our history is a trigger for it just meaning to lie about things. lol, a real motherfucker to get past. But it is why I did feel like expressing it here to see how others might see it. Thank you for not attacking me for putting it out there as I was worried I would just be super downvoted and misunderstood. And I mean that too, just being clear since I have been told I sometimes come across completely wrong/sarcastic in how I write things.

eh it happens but i think people here are far more interested in conversation than ego tripping and brigading so we have that going for us!
