even if it had graphic depictions of Holocaust, whats the problem? children are supposed to learn history, even gruesome parts of it.
high school history textbooks in the U.S. show photos of Holocaust, right?
Textbooks in the US tend to be pretty bad. But I assume most books they still have photos but the right-wing is creating tsunamis of shit. It's hard to keep track of everything they are up to.
I think their attacks on Holocaust-related material is them testing the fences like the velociraptors in Jurassic Park. If they can succeed in banning Holocaust-related material - they can have the confidence to try to ban anything.
The stuff that Americans take offense to is hilarious. This reminds me of the scene in Hannibal with 2 corpses that had the skin on their back peeled off and cut into wings. NBC thought it was inappropriate because the buttcracks of the bodies were visible, so they obscured them with blood.
