One of those things that should be taught in schools but never are
I find it ridiculous that this is the first time that I have heard about this atrocity. If I hadn't stumbled upon this documentary on a suggestion, I'd never have known. We are constantly being bombarded by one and the same story - that of Hitler's Germany, over and over again. Like what he did accounts for all the evil done in the world and its past, present, and the near future, and somehow makes all the other Leopolds insignificant. One ugly history lesson used as a smoke screen for all the others. I'm talking about all the freedom America is bringing around the globe, along with NATO.
Gods damn it. What is wrong with our teachers, our histories, our media, our society that never tells us about the things as they were, but as they presume we need to hear, or as they need us to hear as. Why must I know precisely what Lady Gaga ate for breakfast, but not something that might make me think?
And gods know what else is being suppressed into oblivion.
You could try to be like Julian Assange, but you'll end up as he. They can't hang him or electrocute him for being a commie or a nazi, these are modern times. One needs to modernize one's frames. So he'll go stand a trial for some reason or the other, and be locked away, until 'poor health' takes him in a decade's time.
By then, Justin Bieber will have become a hopeless drunk, and will have started snorting coke off of vertically challenged people's heads, no one would care about the has-been Assange, and then he can literally become a 'has-been'.
How many years should we wait for a striking documentary on British colonialism, French and one on the modern American empire?
A decade, 50y, a century? Two?
Have we really the time?
Will that even cause a change?
Will anyone be watching?
