supposedly at the time there was overwhelming support for the shootings of the college kids and the majority thought they deserved it. probably why it’s been memory holed.
It’s a little more complicated than that. Don’t want to give too much personal info away, but I am intimately familiar with the Kent State shootings. Public opinion was pretty divided at the time from what my parents tell me. At least in the area around Kent, the anniversary of May 4th is treated pretty solemnly. Back in the 80s the rival university 15 miles away named their basketball arena after the governor who sent the national guard in and there were significant protests.

Jesus fuck this country has always idolized fascism hasn’t it?
Do you mean the Philadelphia MOVE bombing? I believe that was in 85 and Tienamen was in 89.
A lot of younger Americans simply just don’t know about it. I had to teach a coworker of mine who’s about 25, what actually went down with hippies during Vietnam. I’m only a few years older but I had a based history teacher who taught us about iran/contra, MK Ultra, the banana republics, and other forms of US imperialism.
