He might as well be anyhow, for all most Americans know a damn thing about him. Your reaction is not at all unfair, lol.

[(Anonymous)]

Haha, this. He was a famous traitor! No later than 1815! ...yeah, whatever.

[(Anonymous)]

I beg to differ. The term "Benedict Arnold" is a common nickname for a traitor in the US. Many Americans may not know the minute details of his life but they understand that he was a traitor during the American Revolution.

[(Anonymous)]

I've actually spoken to quite a few who didn't realize he was an actual person.

Which is about as impressive as knowing what's in their high school history books. Because we all know that's unbiased. I'm not saying that he wasn't a traitor, I'm just saying that the founding fathers totally would have been hung for treason had the Revolution not managed to pull itself off.

[(Anonymous)]

A lot less people know even that anymore. And I wouldn't be surprised if in twenty years most Americans have never heard of him since history is getting wiped from the curriculum in more and more schools.

[(Anonymous)]

It's terrifying to me just how little people actually know. Granted, I didn't learn much in high school, just the shitty MURRICA version, but the thing is, I was from what they thought of as a good school district. Everything salient I ever learned what what I taught myself.

Does it really matter that people don't know who Benedict Arnold is? All the shit that gets excluded from history books, I'm not going to cry over the fact that's his story is missing.

[(Anonymous)]

I was speaking more in general, really. Not just about him.

[(Anonymous)]

can I see a source for that? the "history getting wiped from curriculum" part?
