i have to write an essay and i have like, half a paragraph and it's due at midnight but i have to do a ton of research. rant: who even is john brown bro. everything sucks why can't we learn something about current events, that's clearly more important for understanding this stupid country than a random dude from like, 200 years ago. Like, I get that history is important, but one abolitionist who k1lled some people in the 1850s isn't going to help me understand why everything is like it is today. Just teach me how the actual government is supposed to do. How elections work maybe? Why we have the electoral collage? What congress and the house of representatives do? What the supreme court is? LIKE, ANYTHING USEFUL? Why do I get to memorise the capital of Nevada but not what a governor even does. This is basic information I should know. Why isn't this required to learn. Like, I know that public education is super underfunded, but like, seriously guys. Yeah sorry if you read all of that. I hate it here. *screams in red white and blue 4th of july eagle american dream constitution*
