"My mom used to be a Holocaust denier until I took her to the Holocaust museum at Auswitz. Now she can't believe it's only happened once." - Anthony Jeselnik
Anthony should probably take his mom to some other Holocaust museums. Pretty sure the one in DC has displays for other genocides. I can appreciate the irony that a Hitler quote about how people forgot about the Armenian Genocide is one of the reasons it stays in the public consciousness.
Not to be rude but that means either you are a grade schooler or home schooled or just never went to school at all no?
I feel like you cant spend more than 2 days on the internet without stumbling upon some part of the history of WW2.
You know what, I guess everyone learns about this at some point. In Germany we get, understandably, very well educated on the bad stuff, so no one makes these mistakes again. But I suppose in other places, people never even hear about WW2 their whole life
Several of the greatest movies ever made 100% wouldn't exist without his work. Schindler's List, The Pianist, Saving Private Ryan, and The Thin Red Line are just a few of the films he made possible. Say what you will about his various indiscretions, but the man loved the arts.

andrewta@lemmy.world · 29 pts · 2y
First someone asks if this is sarcastic
You say it's not
Then someone says you must have been home schooled Or never have gone to school to not know this
And you reply that's the joke.
So which is it? You knew or you didn't?

Looking at current AfD votes that whole learning from mistakes thing didn't work out that well.
