    It not being taught is not quite the same as the outright denial / suppression that China does though.

    Like there are only so many hours in the school day, you can’t teach literally every historical event.

      Both US and China actively deny and suppress information. The Chinese method is more authoritarian, the US method is more effective.

      I argue this point on another comment in this thread.
