Reddit reviews Lesson Plan

Speaking of a wave of people and boomers I learned about the Third Wave last night. Bunch of students from Palo Alto in 1967 were easily manipulated into a Nazis organization in a mere week. It's an interesting story that begs the argument, are we all easily manipulated or are boomers the fucking worst?

Edit: The Dollop podcast does an episode and there's a crappy documentry on Amazon Prime called The Lesson Plan if you're into it.

I think that just by sitting in the pews and dropping ones dime in the collection basket one is giving tacit approval to the church and it's crimes.

Through government and church propaganda, Germans were taught that Jews were a threat. I don't buy the business about most German's not knowing about the concentration camps, or the holocaust. They certainly must have seen their neighbors being arrested and hauled away, their shops and businesses closed, their children missing from society, etc.. Rumor alone travels very quickly. I believe that most Germans knew, but believed it to be for the greater good. Could happen anywhere that propaganda turns the people against any segment of society, especially one that's been demonized by the churches for many centuries.

Fascinating/terrifying film documentary on AMAZON Prime, called 'Lesson Plan' The story of the Third Wave experiment in fascism that took place at Cubberley High School in Palo Alto, California, as told by the students and their teacher, Ron Jones. This moving recounting by Jones, school administrators, former students, and many others enthrals with the force of inescapable conclusions, and demonstrates how its theme has only grown in relevance. https://www.amazon.com/Lesson-Plan-Philip-Neel/dp/B076KS3CCS
