Canada won the war of 1812

2 RepliesYep. Unlike americans the Germans actually have the guts to admit their mistakes.
-
Nam wasn't a war tho
-
12 Replies'Nam was a tie. Anyone who tells you different is a gay liberal commie, boy.

The same way you "teach" white men about "white male privilege".

They dont really discuss it is what I was told..by a German.

There's only 1 sentence they know about it: "We dun goofed"

"Ok, well, we fu[i]c[/i]ked up. Let's not do that again. And, if we do end up doing it again, let's not fu[i]c[/i]k up. We'll get those dastardly Jews someday"

Simple lesson I'd assume: if you don't learn history, you're bound to repeat it.
-
"We -blam!-ed up real bad 75 years ago..."

I would assume they teach it the same and tell the students the past is the past and you can't change that.

5 RepliesGermany likely teaches their school kids the truth; that the Naz1s were evil and committed terrible atrocities, and that they aren't the "Master Race" they wanted to be remembered as. remember, not ALL Germans supported Hitler. hell, some of his own command plotted to assassinate him and end the war earlier!
-
2 RepliesEven nam isn't classified as a loss according to history books.
-
They teach it in a way that ingrains it into the student's brains that the Holocaust is something that must never happen again. Unless I'm mistaken, it's illegal to deny the holocaust there.
-
2 RepliesThey dont because they hate hilter and teaching hilter to children is like pouring poison into their brains.
-
20 RepliesIf you mean genocide, then probably just like what the US teaches about the genocide of Native Americans: breeze through it really fast and make sure you never explicitly mention that Manifest Destiny-obsessed white Christian Americans were responsible.

Remember Vietnam
