Political Memes

If today, I wonder if the US would be more reluctant to get involved in that war, considering how seemingly half the country wish Hitler were their president.

Nah, that's mean to the Nazis. Republicans love Nazis now.

And then realized that hitler was actually a pretty good guy, the best guy, not better than me, but really great. The whole thing was a hoax though, a witch hunt, blah blah, A lot of really good people on both sides, blah blah, poisoning the blood of our country, blah blah Jewish space lasers.

I wasn't taught much from the "slavery is good" angle in GA. It was more subtle, framed as mostly information about the goods traded and what slaves produced for the countries they were in. Like, it was all about the slave trade industry and not how awful the conditions were.

Lots of information glossed over in favor of capitalism.

WWII might be risky because some students might ask what specifically made the world consider the axis evil.

They wouldn't pass up on WWII since that's the last time we were honestly seen as the good guys to the world.

Literally the only time anyone thought you were the good guys lol.

It would be, but only to talk about how it was a waste of taxpayer money

The moon landing wouldn’t be up there in red states.

Of course it would. It is one of the few actually valid examples of American exceptionalism which nationalists absolutely require as the underpinnings to their myopic ethos. In addition to teaching the history of this wonderful achievement, it will also be taught how these events never actually took place to support their claims the government actively lies to the American people requiring action for citizens to "take back" the country. Questions for both viewpoints will be on the midterm, so remember to study.

If you're wondering how these two contradictory ideas can be taught in the same classroom, then remember in MAGA school the class taught immediately prior to history is "Learning to live with Cognitive Dissonance".

(how) the moon landing (was faked)

That's probably what they'll teach. That it was a fake liberal lie to undermine the glorious nation of Russia.

you can’t teach something that is fake.

Uh... I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but you can though. Here's a little example:

Africa is a shithole country. White people were kind to accept the slaves that Africans themselves provided, and civilized them. They even gave them sammiches sometimes!

There problem solved: now little Timmy doesn't have to feel guilty about being the oppressor anymore! :-P Next week we'll cover how chaining native Americans to (active) hot stoves in >100 degree temps in the desert will help teach them the true meaning of Christianity...

I bet they leave in plenty of time to talk about how oppressed the Mormons have been.

It's because Republicans were against it after trump getting put off of ballots from the 14th amendment.
