gollark: It is apparently blocked as over-18 content, which makes a slight bit of sense because it could let you access some indirectly, but seriously why.
gollark: The wikipedia page for `The Underground History of American Education` seems to have archive.org links to some stuff, but naturally my mobile network blocks archive.org because that makes sense and is an entirely reasonable thing to do.
gollark: I've heard it said that it works more to teach conformity, or make people happier with low level abuse.
gollark: "What, you can just *look up* that information in ten seconds? Nope! Not allowed! Let us never speak of such things."
gollark: Or forcing people to memorize useless information they will never need so that they can remember it for long enough to write down the right bits in an exam so that someone can say that they Know™ this subject... oh wait.
