22. It's by design. Every other country makes learning about world news

and other countries and languages a priority. Maybe there was another period in our past like what we're going through now where they decided to suppress certain topics from discussion in schools and in the news?

That possibility was never once brought up at any point and it never occurred to me. I thought everything here was built in stone and permanent and it wasn't until 2016 that I learned otherwise.
