Because until recently, we didn’t teach kids that making a mistake or changing one’s mind is ok and a sign of learning and growth. You know, that same social-emotional learning that became a conservative boogeyman.

Because they’re totally telling the truth right? Even if they are…. Who fucking cares? That ain’t gonna sway the judge or jury

There’s a great book about that… “They thought they were free” by Milton Mayer
I feel the exact same as you do. I’m an American and none of what is happening makes sense.
