You and your father were lucky. I grew up in the Bay Area in the 80's and they were full blown America Haters. Luckily for me, my entire family were Active Duty or former Military so the brain wash didn't work on me. You're correct about the trickle down effect but it also just depends on the school district and their willingness to indoctrinate the youth into Leftest Ideologies. No state or county is a monolith.
