Public schools were a mistake. Families teach their children what is needed to function in society. That is the natural way of education. Schools should be reserved for specialized professions or trades that can’t be taught by the family such as surgeons or engineers.
By taking education away from the family and home, the government had unsupervised access to children and indoctrinated them with propaganda.
There is also the false narrative that colonies were open to all races. French colonists did not want British colonists. American colonies went to war with the French because they did not want the French in the Ohio Valley. America also expelled Indians because they did not want them. The idea that America was meant to be a melting pot is a lie meant to justify importing savages and incompatible ethnic groups.
They were Anglo Supremacist but apparently made certain exceptions for Germans and Dutch. My ancestors were Germans who fought for Washington and were given land in return.
They considered the Dutch, all Brits, Scandinavians, and northern germans to be of similar enough stock to be in the US. They gave the French and the various groups of Spaniards in American territory a pass too, but considered them different.
It's not that they hated every other group of europeans. Quite the contrary, actually. They were inspired by the romans and the Greeks, they were helped extensively by the French and the Spanish, and they never said anything hostile about anyone south of the Rhine.
They just saw the conflict in Europe at the time, and wanted a US that was cohesive and springing from the same (at least similar) stock that colonized it in the first place, to avoid having the nation fall apart due to ethnic and cultural issues.
History has halfway vindicated them. Opening up the borders to other European groups hasn't proved to be a problem at all. Besides jews from eastern europe, but thats a different story altogether. The only major issue caused by other whites was the Italian mob, which was actually mostly jewish at the top. I dont think having the borders open to all of europe in the first place would have been a big issue. Opening up the borders to people *outside of europe* though, well...
