    …teaching them how to interpret social interactions in the context of socio-political history seems like teaching them what to think, rather than how to think. That does sound like political indoctrination to me…

    Understanding history and how it applies to modern expressions of empathy is not “political”.

    Empathy is simply not a conservative trait. It’s difficult for conservatives to understand it without experiencing it. For that reason, your position on it being “political” indicates to me you may be conservative.
