I don't advocate for public education. It sucks. I send my kids to a classical liberal arts private school. If I couldn't do that we would homeschool.

But to forget the past is a collosal fail. Kayne didn't only advocate that schools not teach it but he advocate that we (society) forget the past. Stupid hot take Kayne as usual.

Now you could make the argument that only public schools should stick to math. I'd agree. But it only be a matter of time before those kids grow up into adults that do not know why things the way they are or why people are the way they are....ect.

You are kidding yourself if you think the majority of those kids will get educated in the past by their parents. Very few adults have the attention span or even knowledge to give their kids an education in such things.
