Evolution is taught in schools just as how we got involved in Iraq war. Discussing if humans are impacting climate change, Vaccines. Anyone can complain about anything they want.

complaining about teaching evolution is one thing.

complaining that a child is taught that their skin color bestows them with guilt, is something very very different. liberals are free to believe that all they want obviously, but it doesn’t belong in a public school.

anyone can complain today paul, it’s a free country. this is just giving parents a common, specific route to complain.

of course democrats want to flag those who do, as domestic terrorists.

You referring to the Republicans who called for their elected representative to kneel to the cross.
Harassing a person who’s willing to serve his country both in the armed services and as a representative of the people?
Only Christians may apply?

When crowds show up at Jewish representatives houses with signs saying "Stand for the flag, kneel for the cross," you might want to read up on antisemitism and what it spawned.

I can't overemphasize that most Germans were in disbelief that the Nazis were able to assume power and completely manipulate the institutions of law and education.

They were able to do this by breaking all the established norms for acceptable behavior, and getting away with it

I bet they instituted lots of mandates and requirements, kept the public constantly in fear and told that they were motivated by science and superior intellect and better education, probably used relentless propaganda and censorship with the help of media and industry, threatened the livelihoods of those who opposed their directives and isolated groups who were not compliant and targeted the children for reeducation, training them to think the right way about things, of course, they had lots of help from those that fell in line and mindlessly regurgitated the propaganda that the state and scientists were pushing
