The common lie spouted by the Left is that the Nazis were Rightwing. Although they were hyper Nationalists, their economic platform was Socialist. Hence the term, National Socialism as opposed to International Socialism. Slowly over the years some on the Left have begun to admit the Nazis were one of their own. I suspected that over time, the Left would rehabilitate the Nazis. It seems that process has begun.

An English teacher in NY gave an assignment to students. They were to play the role of Nazis. Even worse, their essay was about why Jews are evil.

ALBANY, New York – A New York state high school English teacher who asked students to imagine they were Nazis and give reasons why Jews were evil could be reprimanded or dismissed, a school district superintendent said on Friday.

City School District of Albany Superintendent Marguerite Vanden Wyngaard apologized at a news conference and pledged officials would personally express regret to Albany High School students who were given the assignment and their families.

“This assignment for some of our students at Albany High School was completely unacceptable. It displayed a level of insensitivity that we will not tolerate in our school community,” Vanden Wyngaard said.

The teacher gave three classes of 10th-grade students a persuasive writing assignment as part of a class project to demonstrate how Nazis thought and showed their loyalty to the Third Reich before World War Two.

“You need to pretend that I am a member of the government in Nazi Germany, and you are being challenged to consider that you are loyal to the Nazis by writing an essay convincing me that Jews are evil and the source of our problems,” the assignment instructions said.

It is only a matter of time before the Nazis are embraced by the Left again. This essay was despicable on so many levels.
