Remember that most textbooks in the south used to romanticize slavery and portray slaves as happy and loving their owners. Conservatives have always used the education manipulate the future electorate through culture. They claim that removing the stars and bars and confederate statues is erasing history when they are the ones actual manipulate history.
An Alabama history textbook said slavery was a form of social security and that slave owners treated slaves well.

 Everything is projection with the right. They know that they've lied about American history, that's why they see the most meager attempts to begin to correct the record as such a serious threat.
The Japanese far right is even worse and is trying to do the same kind of projection.
