      US kids dont learn that the situation in Iran now is directly from the US (and UK) overthrowing a democratic government because said government promised to nationalize the country’s oil fields, and them the US doing it again to the subsequent dictator when he (inevitably) turned against the US controllers.

      No it wont, because they’ll be serfs to Techbrodude Godking Elno the Third, and they’ll be lucky if their education includes reading and writing.

      Yes there are times when I’m more optimistic, but today’s not one of those days.
