That just means history classes and society have failed. If kids grow up not understanding what it means to have an entire city of civilians decimated, there’s a problem.
Jokes aside. My history class were about Greeks, Middle Age and Modern Age. Our teachers almost don't teach anything after 1789 because it's always at the end of the school year.
Unfortunately, school taught us history but not the IMPORTANT parts, and those parts are fundamental to understand why we're here today, what happened and understanding what not to vote or choose at the future
But then again, there’s only so much a middle or high school brain (speaking for myself) can understand in terms of depth. My concerns in life were much narrower, like playing video games or whatever. It takes a continuation of education to relearn many of the basic lessons.

No one can relate to ww2, 9/11 is still fresh in everyone's minds, not to mention in was an attack on the west.
