like you're forced to say the pledge
forced to thank the armed forces
forced to love Christopher Columbus
also its weird how they teach you about other economic/political systems, like there will be quiz questions like "why does communism fail?" (I'M not saying it works or fails ok) and like "why is capitalism such a success?" |

i think if the school didn't say the pledge or thank the armed forces they would be sued. if you dont want to do it i guess that means you have no pride in your country.
as for christopher columbus, my history teacher doesn't agree with that either
the last one, i mean how do you think the germans teach WWII? how do you think the UK teaches the american revolution? same thing.
Excuse me, but that's inappropriate for school. |

In Canada we just have to stand at attention for the national anthem, which I can respect. Besides that, we just have to take a politics course in grade 10, which I'm in.
Honestly, it seems pretty unbiased. I've learned about communism, dictatorships, socialism, and other forms of democracy/authoritarian governments.
We've learned the ups and downs to all of them, and even laughed at the stupidity of our own government and others sometimes. |

| My classmates try to convert people to Christian. I tested this out in my Period 8 class (inventing elective, I go to a magnet school) when I asked who invented the world. Everyone said "God!!!!" |

>forced to say the pledge
no at my school, they anually state that you do not have to say the pledge if you do not want to
>forced to thank armed forces
no you don't have to but a lot of people do because they serve the country
>forced to love christopher columbus every single story i ever heard of christopher columbus depicted him as a terrible person
they never say something like "why does communism fail"
heck, three years ago i had a class that actually said why communism was meant to be the greatest thing ever it's not bias to say it didn't work out well that's just what happened |

No, not exactly.
My grandma made a joke about that one time though.
She was saying how in first grade they teach kids that Christopher Columbus was an awesome person for discovering the Americas, and then in sixth grade they preach about Christopher Columbus bringing disease and death to the natives lol. |
