Basically I am studying in America right now. My principle of Democracy teacher talk about how it is okay that the bridge near Crimea exploded because Russia strike Ukraine and Ukraine have more more death. She even talk about how Azov didn’t deserve to get torture despite they are Nazis…

    When the war started all the trachers told me they didn’t care or that they supported Russia against nato exapnsion

    Also here’s a pic from an Algerian text book

    It says “…things did not stop at the border instead it got more complicated, Korea has witnessed a brutal war from 1950 to 1953 that left millions of deaths wounded and lost and also dug hatred between the sons of the same nation, it also threw away everything that United it from ethnicity and language to history and culture…”-kim IL sung idk if he actually said it

        Here’s from the page for Cuba:

        “the American imperialist forces worked on growing their economic actions in Latin America, and it managed to control many countries and abort their communist systems for example Chile, and the United states has hit an embargo on Cuba after it was too hard to overthrower the communist system, so Cuba stayed as a freedom island for the people in Latin America looking to build a leftist system just like Cuba, sadly the us still has its foot in the land of Cubans and it’s the guantanamo Base being a painful spike in the body of Cuba, and this base has became in our time a black mark and a shameful act written on the foreheads of the United states after the government turned it into the worst prison in the history of man”

    Welcome to the US.

    It is literally the fourth reich in a mask like this

      The U.S. isn’t the Fourth Reich— if anything, it was the original, and later the update.

      The difference between the NSDAP and the Founding Fathers is that the former failed in what the latter and their successors accomplished.

        Boom - this is a really important point to remember as a lot of scholars really try to make it seem like the US only got bad after ww2. It was always the worst.

    History teachers are the weirdest. I remember having one that was teaching us about the Holocaust. We played a game of charades and I had to portray a victim in a camp.

    First, how the fuck do you do this?

    Second, I was very thin at the time. My teacher said: just point at yourself, you look like a jew in a camp. I had just recovered from a potentially fatal pneumonia that took 15kg of body weight from me.

        At the time I though: jeez you fucking weirdo what the hell? Some girls in my class got mad as wel IIRC, but I didn’t think much of it then.

        After some time I realized how wrong it was what he said. Frat boy looking ass. Should’ve said something to the staff.

          Makes me wonder how much inappropriate stuff teachers get away with when kids don’t fully grasp the gravity of what they say.

        It’s nice to see everyone here shocked in a way. What he said really was wrong. I’ve got a thick skin and it didn’t bother me all too much in the end, but Jesus man how can you say something like that to a teenager?

    A lot of the “leftists” here would be the right wing of politics in most countries. The average person sounds like a Nazi. Our right wing just wants to end humanity.

    My personal favorite “worst American teacher moment” was when she learned I was a Muslim (context: this was ~2012 and her husband saluted the clock every morning at 9:11 A.M.) and we had an Islam unit (the class was social studies). She started talking about how Muhammed saw two angels coming down from heaven, and said, “And what was this class?” She and everyone else, as if they had practiced, all chanted “A METEOR!” and laughed at the stupidity of Muhammed (as far more zealous Christians, like, what? Don’t go picking at the rationality of religion now lol), her staring at me to see my reaction. Didn’t even register as weird in my head for several years lmao. But yeah American teachers tend to be CNN liberals AT BEST, or maybe some anti-AES Frankfurtian “leftist” in college if you’re lucky.
