Yeah, it was probably at some particular schools. I forget where I read it, tbh. Still, it’d make a great addition to any curriculum, and not just about the USA but about any country that uses unusual propaganda to steer its population a certain way.
Except that nowadays rightwing populists everywhere would fight such a curriculum with teeth and nails. We need a general education about smartphone / social media usage & algorithms, but by the time kids are old enough to follow such a class, their brains are already mush :(
