MTG says Speaker Pelosi wanting Members of Congress to get vaccinated and if not to wear masks is “exactly the type of abuse” as murdering Jews in gas chambers during the Holocaust and David Brody nods along. No follow up.

We need to do a much better job at teaching history because this ain’t it.

Yeah, she failed to learn from history and was doomed to make mistakes from the past including supporting the 21st Century Adolf Hitler..... Oompa Loompa..... whatever you wish to call the former guy.
This isn't a matter of teaching history to MTG, & others like her. All these people need to sit down with licensed psychiatrists & get a complete psychiatric evaluation!!!
Exactly, that equating things by showing disrespect for People should never happen. Green is not using it as a methaphor, but as words charged with careleness, and disrespect.
This is absolutely outrageous! There is no equivalency here at all; and Rep. Taylor Greene has no ability to reason at all, fitting in with many other amongst her ranks.

Republicans are working to re-Whitewash History with their assault and effort to ban 1619 Project from school curriculum.

The problem is that Republicans only want history from a white man’s perspective, that’s how we got here. This is 2021 and we’re talking about what history should taught.

It’s not ignorance, willful or otherwise. It’s vicious antisemitism. She’s not trying to convince people that being made to wear a mask is as bad as the Holocaust. She wants people to think the Holocaust was no worse than being made to wear masks.

If we would teach thinking skills, that would take care of 90% of this kind of lunacy.

We need to make civics (American government) a mandatory requirement for graduation. Hell, I would support a law that requires passing a citizenship test like immigrants have to pass just to get a drivers license.
