When I was 14 we were talking about WWII in social studies and I claimed Hitler was a christian, my classmates doubted me so I said "Why do you think he killed Jews?" My teacher didn't even correct me. The whole situation was cringe in retrospect.

"Why did Hitler hate the Jews" was never really explained to me in my history classes. It always boiled down to "he needed a scapegoat for Germany's problems" which seemed (and still seems) overly simplistic. Ironically the lackluster treatment of WWII is what started my scepticism regarding the whole standard narrative of Hitler and the jews.

From the jew's mouth to your textbook. The jews always claim it is never their fault, but it was then and always has been. The Germans hated jews and wanted them to leave their country because they'd carved out the culture, crashed the economy, and turned Berlin into a whore house. Moreover, they're doing the same thing in the west now, so tensions are again boiling over, people are beginning to talk about kicking jews out, and the jews are again pretending this has nothing to do with their own behavior, and that the goyim need more tolerance education.

So here we go again.

The /pol/ answer is pretty much it though. Not that the /pol/ answer is entirely truthful but that's the way Hitler perceived it and portrayed them. A lot of what Hitler said about Jews was based on his own interactions with them and power they really had, he just exaggerated it and used it as a strawman applied to all Jews as an excuse to treat them as subhuman. The scapegoat thing is also partially right, insofar as Hitler used and spread already widespread antisemitism as a way to gain and consolidate political power.

Compare it to the way the so-called "new right" discusses muslims in the EU. There are in fact many issues with the mass immigration of muslims into the EU and they are correct in identifying some of them. Due to the fact that the far left opposes open discourse about these issues, they take a bit of artistic freedom with their portrayal that becomes racist and vitriolic. But that doesn't mean that a lot of the problems they identify aren't there, they just aren't honest in their portrayal of these problems.

One example is the way they portray certain neighbourhoods as uninhabitable hellholes when in reality the crime rates are lower than Compton. I acknowledge that these immigrants commit crimes at higher rates than the origin population but some of the articles making claims like that are ridiculous.

Anyway, I'm not trying to debate, I was just using an analogy based on the way I perceive things but I'll admit I'm not an expert on the situation and am open to changing my views. That said, if I were in the EU I probably would vote for parties like the AfD even though I find some of their base quite vulgar. I'm not your enemy.

I went to school in the UK and I have a lower opinion of it as time passes. I don't think it is quite as bad as the USA system sounds because you could drop subjects after 16 and an A grade was gained after something like 70 - 85, I can't really remember. The USA system where everything under 90 is treated as a disaster sounds fucking horrific. Also ths idea that you have a GPA to the decimal place.

But the UK system is still bad. It varies across the country but history was non existent, the idea of a canon was non existent, set books were non existent. I didn't take English past 16 because I hated the class.

School in the UK is just as stupid. English is actually one of the worst culprits as a subject. For your GCSE exam you have to be extremely familiar with basically just a few works, which means that over the course of 2-3 years (depending on when you start the GCSE course) your education is going to be based on how to milk these works for points from the marker. You study Shakespeare, learning exactly what the examiner wants you to know, but never once did we actually have any kind of discussion about why his works were important or worth reading. Everything in the school system is geared towards exams, there's very little room for anything else. Why did I have to learn geography for ten whole years when nowadays I remember nothing, and if I wanted could absorb most of the interesting information in about a day, just from reading. The same can be said for just about every other subject.

Why no philosophy, why no course in finance, or cooking, or literally anything that's actually useful.

My brain was warped by years and years of the school system, into hating education and reading. And I went to one of the best schools in the country (regularly the actual highest scoring school in the country in exams), so it's not like I was being taught by a bunch of retards who didn't care about their job. I got amazing grades, which I guess is what my parents paid for, but it didn't matter in the end because I burned out, when to a meh uni to do a meh course and got a 2:1 when I said fuck it and missed a whole bunch of exams. My parents paid hundreds of thousands of pounds over the course of me and my siblings childhoods for private school and it was a huge waste of money, on something that was actually pretty harmful. Now they wonder why I prefer the glorious NEET life of reading and exercising all day. GEE ANY FUCKING WONDER WHEN MY TEENAGE YEARS WERE SPENT TRYING TO MEMORIZE VARIOUS TYPES OF BEACH FORMATIONS AND OTHER BULLSHIT LIKE THAT.

My info is a touch out of date, but...

You're right on English, it's a shit subject that rewards quote memorisation and rote answers, on the other hand compulsory Shakespeare is one of the few cool things and there's no need to explain why to anyone.

Geography is okay - 'human' geography is actually quite good if you have an interesting teacher, anyway it's non compulsory for GCSE and basically 50% closet International Studies before that point.

Philosophy is subsumed into Religion until higher level study because kids reading Socrates directly is in fact stupider than kids reading Shakespeare. Finance [aka Economics] is again saved for post-16 education with GCSE Maths as a functional barrier.

True, I doubt other options are much better, although I still regret taking geography considering how much work it was.

>Finance [aka Economics] is again saved for post-16 education
Finance isn't the same as economics. I'm not necessarily interested in understanding economic theory as much as I am interested in the practical reality of what is to be done with the money I earn and why. This could fit nicely with varied discussion on the importance of money, frugality etc. Really money is such a huge topic that it could go in a number of different directions. Taking A-level economics doesn't even begin to cover it.

>Cooking is available at pleb-tier schools only because fucking learn it at home in an actual kitchen what's wrong with you?
A course on integrated culinary skills with aesthetics, nutrition etc. Would be interesting.

The problem is that we have an understanding that education needs to be directed from school board -> teachers -> students, rather than allowing for more flexible, self-directed, and integrated study. It's not just the content, but the entire school system and environment which is extremely damaging to a child and young person's mind. I'm quite seriously considering taking up a career in a Montessori school for older kids at some point, already did one year as a teacher in an international school which only confirmed what I already believed to be true: that the schools we have are toxic to kids' minds and brain development.

That's actually not true. Most first world countries have a negative replacement rate among natives of the country and rely on immigration to bolster their population growth so their total population doesn't start decreasing. It's actually beneficial for the economy of a country to have population growth for complicated economic reasons. If you want an example of what happens when population starts decreasing just look at Japan. They have basically no immigration and their economy has been in a slump ever since their replacement rate went negative. Basically population growth helps drive GDP growth, even if you're bringing in people who are below the poverty line. That said, there's also problems with bringing in too many immigrants, so as always finding a happy medium is the best solution. It's not an all-or-nothing issue.

And all that talk of Aryan values.
What are Aryan values? They'd just round off random shit like art, architecture, civilization, glory as if it all belongs to them.
I think the worst part is the 19th-century anthropology jargon they use whenever they talk about racial differences. They try to be so scientific but can't help but be emotionally charged every time the subject of their obsessions, the Indo-Europeans, come up.

Jews were overrepresentated in academia, CEO-positions, etc. Hitler believed that this meant they were part of a big conspiracy and that they were using their power to destroy German culture.

It's a bit similar to how in the US some conservatives believe that leftists are indoctrinating students and undermining American values as part of a conspiracy simply because there are more leftists than conservatives in academia.

Literally just stop being an anti-intellectual ideology and you'll get more professors who are "conservative"
Jesus Christ, you know why Marxists are in academia? Because they fucking encourage you to read Capital and the Manifesto and all these other works to get the knowledge you need to know what the fuck you're talking about. I've never heard a "conservative" (American version, there are plenty of well-read reactionaries) encourage anyone to read anything rigorous or difficult

You're dumb. The conservative reading list is long. The Marxist one is necessarily short because you'd end up having to read some of the worst literature in history.

A conservative could recommend the Federalist papers, Sowell, Rand, 1984, Wealth of Nations, Locke, Mises, Rothbard, Hoppe, and much more.

Conservatives about academia because it is an exclusive club for spouting socialism. It will naturally move further left . This applies up to the point of humanities and soft sciences. Everything past is far more open.

Okay, I found a relevant section in one of my old textbooks. There's some competing factors involved in population growth's effect on GDP. On a basic level, increasing population has a negative effect on GDP per capita because it spreads the stock of capital across more people. However, this may be counterbalanced by the effect of increased scientific and technological progress that comes with a larger population. You can check out the article "Population Growth and Technological Change: One Million B.C. to 1990" published in the Quarterly Journal of Economics by Michael Kremer for more on that.

Interesting.

I went to one of the worst performing schools in the country. Most of the kids came from areas with a life expectancy of 65 - the same as Ethiopia (the town was in the news this week for that reason). My experience was similar to yours except that many of the teachers were simply poor and efforts were focussed on kids at the D-C boundary. Smart pupils were left to their own devices.

What >>11546434 >>11545464 said
Plus, the leadership of the 1918 communist Munich rebellion that lead to the collapse of the Reich and the creation of the Weimar had been run in large part by Jews, on top of the fact that a large number of the pre-Stalin Soviet government had been Jewish, with Marx himself being a Jew (albiet non-believing), the general fear of Bolshevism in the West, on top of their dominance in international institutions, the Jews made rather clear sense as for 'who' to blame

Lol, if by Latin, you mean Spanish, because that's the closest you're gonna get
They dont even teach cursive anymore. My school district dropped it when I was in 3rd grade
When we had to fill out forms for college in high school most of the people in my graduating class had to ask what to put for their signature because they didnt know how to write it in cursive.
Im lucky enough my elementary school made us do our signature in rote memory style everyday, because I at least know how to do that, but that's about it

didn't have to take this at my hs since I wasn't an unmotivated idiot and got into a program to take calculus courses from a college while in high school

went to a public and very liberal school that hired openly gay teachers and didn't hear any of this white guilt drivel or get my essays thought-policed

basically, public school education is completely unfucked unlike what people claim it is, if you think you got a "shit" education then you probably put zero effort into getting anything from it

either that or you were born into a shithole state that doesn't give a fuck about it, in which case you have my condolences
