And we would have broken that sort of teacher back in the day. Reminds me of the time Matt had had enough of Shipley's ignorance and just destroyed her when she tried to suggest that the English standard of living had declined thanks to the Industrial Revolution.
It's not even the sheer ignorance that upsets me. It's the fact that later, although the teacher concedes that he was wrong, he insists that the student should still blindly accept what authoritarians tell him is fact. And we wonder why a majority of Americans believed Saddam had WMDs and ties to Al Queda.
