>>11281552>Also why are dinosaurs taught to children at an early age?I've been wondering the same thing. I think it is some form of social control via fantasy. Sorta like how the Santa Clause/Xmas thing plays out for children.
In the US in schools for young children in the 1980s, historical education amounted to,
Civil War
Indians
Egyptians
Dinosaurs
Holocaust
