I guess those kids called it.
I know every greentext is 100% real, but this is definitely the most true thing that has ever happened and been accurately but anonymously reported.

Those who don’t know history are doomed to repeat it
And those who know history have to stand by and watch, powerlessly, as history is repeated.
And those who watch the history channel have just sit there and take it as the motherfucking aliens go build the pyramids
I feel like by 5th grade we already learned WWI and WWII twice
Maybe. But at Anons School “Eating Glue” is a subject.
That’s before the “tide pod challenge” capstone course they all have to take right?
Atleast anon is self conscies
have fake cereal brand with my friend for some reason
Of all the whats that, in the entire history of what, have ever whatted, what?
“Me being German” yet doesn’t know what a Nazi is. So I assume anon is a ‘Merican of German descent. So not really German German.
I don’t think German 5th graders know what Nazis are either, besides being bad if they’ve heard the term before. At school, history is being covered chronologically, so it takes until 9th or 10th grade to reach WW2. Outside of schools, there’s genuinely not that much children will learn about Nazis, if the parents don’t decide to actively teach them.
I’m from Germany and me and my classmates deffenetly new what a Nazi is. Not as detailed, but the general concept of Nazis and the holocaust is something you learn very early and that is strongly linked with our culture. We do many things differently, because of our history and on top of that is a never forget attitude, which has the effect that it is regulary talked about, even with kids.
Yeap, my wife moved to the US from Germany when she was younger. She was called a Nazi by the kids in her class. It was kinda traumatic for her, because the 90’s German education system really hammered down just how inappropriate it is to misrepresent what Nazism was really all about.
