FWIW, I'm old enough to remember when (pre-1980s?) the entire political spectrum respected and valued education. Folks ought to wonder why one end of it now prefers their followers to be less informed.
Informed about what, exactly?
History? Science? Logic?
I'm sure a moderator will decide a history lesson is political, but I will try to keep it "clean".
One past President, while introducing somebody declared "We have a lot in common. You wrote a book in collage, and I read one"
Another while campaigning often declared "I love the poorly educated"
Many want to not just control what books their kids read, but also what all kids can read. Does anybody have any idea what other government, past and present, ban books?
