Do you now realize how much your teachers and parents lied to you?

They told you things like:
You can do anything you put your mind to
There are no dumb questions
WWI started BECAUSE of ARCHDUKE FERDINAND'S assassination
Christopher Columbus was a good guy
Thanksgiving was a festival that was handed down since colonial days
Abraham Lincoln was all about freeing slaves
Thomas Jefferson was a noble man
Santa Clause and the Easter Bunny

I figured it was all bullshite when I was 12 years old. My grandfather died and it was apparent to me my prayers weren't being answered because there was nobody up there to hear them. I started looking around with a closer eye and it became clear that nobody had a clue wtf they were doing. We're all in this alone, and we have to struggle along toward whatever uncertain fate awaits us.

What? It did.

Nobody ever told me that.

I ain't the smartest person ever but I got where I am because of mentality and effort and most successful people did the same.
quote:
Abraham Lincoln was all about freeing slaves
When he issued the emancipation proclamation, he did go all in. It was a belief of his for years but he wanted to keep the country rather than pursuing it. Once the civil war turned into what it did, he had to make it the issue of the war.
quote:
Thomas Jefferson was a noble man
Brilliant and respectable. A good leader. But through and through a politician.

Santa Clause and the Easter Bunny
I believe.

The difference between "cause" and "flashpoint" is enormous.
Your teacher made you think Gavrilo Princip started the bloodiest war ever all by himself by popping a cap in the Archduke. Not really. The cause of WWI is a pretty foggy concept, but most historians agree that the entangled alliances of Western Europe and Pan-Slavism in the east dragged everyone into killing one another. Ferdinand getting shot was just the spark on the powder keg.
