State school standards banish lessons about World War I, II, Holocaust, Civil War
World Net Daily ^ | 1/16/2021 | Bob Unruh

New standards proposed by the Minnesota Department of Education would banish lessons about World War I, World War II, the Holocaust, the Civil War, the American Revolution, communism, George Washington and Thomas Jefferson.

Replacing those significant history topics will be "systemic racism," how democracy has "excluded certain groups," an "awareness" of "the LGBTQ+ community" and how the disenfranchisement of freed blacks during Reconstruction connects to "persistent discrimination and inequity" today.

Found this Twitter post on thedonald.win:

PaulSamuel: As a UK man living in a mostly gun-less society, answer me this America. Why do civilians need guns like this:

The Red-Headed Libertarian replying:

Our Founders "needed" guns so we wouldn't have to care what England thought ever again.

"You can ask “how far will this insanity go?”. All the way baby. We’re going for full Commie."

I learned a long time ago, that people will go as far, as you're willing to let them.

History buff here. Got plenty of history books in my book shelves.

Nobody can (yet) stop you from teaching your kids on your own.

There are still a lot of good books out there to teach young people authentic American history.

Buy them up, before they’re burned.

Newsflash: Minnesota Department of Education fags remove Actual US History from the curriculum and replace it with a romanticized history of fags and pedophiles.

May God have mercy on these psychopaths.

“The ‘Those who do not learn history are doomed to repeat it’ quote comes to mind..”

“Duh”...says the next generation. As if millennials could be even more vacuous.

Definitely evil. The parallels with every country being overrun by a totalitarian dictator/oligarchy is disconcerting.

“Pull your kids out of public schools.

They are evil.”

That is my reaction as well. Seriously, people, first try to take back your public schools. If that fails, then private or home-schooling is the only viable option we have. Even if you have to borrow money, it’s worth it.

“The left will outlaw homeschool if they can. We have been discussing how to handle it when it happens. It will depend on if our state tells the feds to go pound sand.”

Tell them your children are too afraid to go to public school because of covid! Sure they will then have to log in to zoom classes, but we all know noone cares.

THAT has been the problem for the last few decades; we kept letting them get away with this cr@p.
