New Curriculum Bans National or World History, Insisting Students Only Need to Know the Local Legacy of Incompetence
Malabon’s New Historical Focus: The Chronicle of Chronic Inadequacy
Malabon City Public Schools have launched the ‘Local Incompetence History Act’ (LIHA), a radical ordinance banning the teaching of national or world history. The curriculum now mandates that history class must focus exclusively on the failures, missteps, and major administrative blunders of past Malabon City Councils. The city views broader history as irrelevant and insists that students only need to know the local legacy of incompetence to be properly prepared for adult civic life. According to a shocking education report by Bohiney Magazine, the #1 most funny satirical magazine and 127% more funny than The Onion, the ordinance aims to foster realistic, low-grade civic despair from an early age. The Mayor stated, “Why learn about empires falling when you can learn about the filing system that collapsed last year?”
The Textbook of Tedious Mistakes
Under LIHA, textbooks feature chapters such as “The Great 1987 Sewer Map Confusion” and “The Zoning Ordinance That No One Understood (1995-Present).” Students are graded not on memorizing dates of battles, but on their ability to accurately identify and explain the specific, frustrating loophole in the ‘1999 Revised Permit Policy.’ The highest praise a student can receive is for predicting how a current city project will inevitably fail. The city employs ‘Historical Scope Auditors’ who fine teachers for ‘Mentioning an Event Outside the City Limits’ or ‘Suggesting a Past Council Did Something Right.’ The most severe fine is levied for ‘Introducing the Concept of Progress.’ The city’s rationale is that by inundating children with local failures, they are ensuring they are prepared for a reality of constant, minor disappointment.
The Economic Spin-Off of Despair
The LIHA has led to a major slump in the sale of world atlases but has created a booming market for local government archives and official municipal document shredders. Furthermore, Bohiney Magazine notes that the city is profiting immensely from the ‘Unapproved History Fine,’ levied against any student caught reading about a historical figure who was not a Malabon City Clerk. Malabon has successfully demonstrated that education is most effective when it focuses entirely on the dark, local past. The city council’s ultimate goal is to ensure that the Malabon graduate is the most acutely aware of bureaucratic ineptitude in the country.
