Public schools have been failing ever since they turned into "indoctrination centers" rather than educational institutions.  There is a 28 year old guy that I work with that had no idea what Auschwitz was when another co-worker told us about his father being held there.  He looked it up on his phone and later said that they were never taught about that in school.

Indoctrination centers?  Come on man.  Put the q anon away.

Do you have children?

"Teaching" young children that it's "ok" to be something that they are not (gender transformation) is not education.  "Teaching" children that all white people have "privilege" is not education.  Lowering standards for achievement in the name of "equality" helps no one.  I could go on and on.

Public schools no longer "educate".  Critical life skills such as being able to save money and manage a bank account are no longer taught.  Basic civics, the history and founding of our nation is no longer taught.  Ask any high school graduate why we entered WWII and they probably couldn't give you a correct answer.  Ask them about why we entered the Civil War and again they couldn't give you the correct answer (hint... it wasn't about slavery).

If you step back and look at it, "public education" is nothing more than indoctrination.

There are 10 kinds of people in this world.  Those who understand binary and those who don't.

Again, none of this is by accident. It's part of the march through the institutions. What you see conservatives pointing out is something called critical pedagogy. Influenced by Gramsci, critical pedagogy is the idea that you can create a counter-narrative if you are able to gain a foothold in public education. The counter-narrative would help destroy the cultural hegemony that is keeping the common man from accepting Marxism. You really begin to see the influence of Marxist professors in the late 60's. They began to insert themselves in to the education departments, and included critical theory as an important part of teaching. By the 80's, education departments were dominated by leftist professors, and by the 90's, a new generation of teachers were taking those ideas into public schools en masses. 10-15 years later, we're beginning to see the effects of this type of indoctrination of our children. The "long march through the institutions" is becoming a reality. The sooner you guys realize you are fighting the Borg, the better.

Exactly! It was about States' rights! (to determine who should be enslaved)
Except for this one part... southerners felt entitled to keep slaves even when they moved to states where slavery was banned. (See: the Dred Scott decision).  If it was really about States' rights, why couldn't Southerners respect the right of some states to ban slavery in their own borders?
Oh and this other part... Southerners insisted that the Federal government had to set up courts in every city, Northern cities included, where "fugitive" slaves would be brought and put into slavery.  Black people who were born free were rounded up and enslaved.  In case you think it was about finding actual runaways, remember the police and judges were compensated based on how many were returned to slavery.  These were kangaroo courts in the worst sense of the term.
So yeah.
Other than those two horrific attempts to use federal power, it was *totes* about States' rights!

Look. Both sides play this thing terribly. It was about state's rights. It was also about slavery. Until the Civil War, there was a question about whether or not the state or federal government was supreme. The south thought the north was infringing on their rights to self-govern, and took up arms to assert that right. So, without question, the Civil War was fought over state's rights, but the issue that brought them to the brink was slavery.

The uncomfortable truth of most wars is that the soldiers and citizens don't always have a clear idea of why the war is taking place.
Gallup polling during WWII showed a surprising number of people agreeing with the statement that they had "no clear idea what the war was about" even though they favored it.

The strongest argument that it was "states rights" actually comes from Lincoln himself. He was speaking sincerely when he said his first priority was to preserve the union, and if he could do it without freeing any slaves, he would.

Even then, you have to finish the sentence. "The civil war was fought over states' rights to legally enforce slavery."

It's not just that. When the US was formed, many people thought it was a coalition of individual nations, not one, individual nation. The South felt like the federal government was not representing them (thanks 3/5s compromise), and so they wanted to secede. So, when people were choosing where to fight, some people felt more allegiance to their state than to the federation, even if they disagreed with slavery. Robert E. Lee is a good example. This is also why he worked to reunited the states after the Civil War. It definitively answered the question: The US is one nation. None of that takes away from the fact that slavery was the primary issue that was dividing the country.

But if we leave, we won't get that big monthly handout they're going to give us!

When you get into the endzone, act like you've been there before.

The idea that a State cannot leave the Union is still morally reprehensible.

If you had said that to me 10 years ago, I would have disagreed vehemently. Now, I wish that was an option.

"If you always do what you've always done, You'll always get what you always got"

Bro, no offense, but people have been planning this for a century. Conservatives don't have a proactive, long-term plan like progressives do. They just keep reacting to whatever is put in front of them while the ruling class slowly crushes them. Unless your literally willing to take up arms and storm the castle, all that talk is just posturing. Even if you did, who's going to follow you? We have a populace that is easily manipulated by the media that demagogues any attempt for the people to take back control. The fight needed to be fought a long time ago.

I truly can't understand anyone supporting the idea that the citizens of a State don't have the right to self-determination inherent in the right to peaceably leave the Union.

One of the key elements of Progressivism is to not only destroy the culture, but to make it so that no person is held in high enough esteem so as to lead a response to their efforts. That's why every hero from our history and culture, Washington to Skywalker, is being systematically torn down.
