Students know what a good parade looks like



Most Asians care little about the holocaust, seeing it as a Western thing.  They may even admire Hitler as a strong leader.  And Hitler definitely ran impressive parades.  So they see no problem in copying him

To celebrate the 62nd anniversary of a school in northern Taiwan, students were invited to choose historical figures and “cosplay” them at a parade Friday.

Liu Hsi-cheng, a history teacher at Hsinchu Kuang Fu High School, suggested to his homeroom class that they go with famous people from Arabic culture, he told the Taipei Times.

But Liu's students had another idea: a theme based on Adolf Hitler.

Liu warned his students that such a theme would be “very controversial,” the paper reported — but ultimately “chose to respect the students' decision and did not veto it” after the class voted on it twice.

On Friday, students from the school in Hsinchu, about 55 miles southwest of Taipei, showed up to the festivities wearing Nazi uniforms and brandishing signs, arm bands and long red banners with swastikas on them.

As word of the school activity circulated online, the outrage was swift and widespread. On social media, people in Taiwan and abroad condemned the students' decision as “ignorant” and “a disgusting display of disrespect.”

I suspect that even in the United States students are not learning about the evils associated with Hitler, Stalin, Mussolini, and the Japanese War Lords.

The Nazis were not "Liberal/liberal" in any sense of the term (political or otherwise).
