    the ww2 era includes the rise of fascism, eugenics, the creation and use of the most powerful weapons in human history, the first industrialized genocide in human history, etc

    I agree completely, my point is that in the years leading up to the WW2 the spread of hateful politicians in power hit Europe (see Hitler, Mussolini, Franco) in the same way it hits the world rn (Trump, Boris, Bolsonaro etc etc). People should know how it went the last time it happened and try to stop it while (if) they can

    Mendel proposed genetics like basic traits but Darwin applied it further how animals like we are adapt to certain environments to survive.

    so why is that a useless part of history? just because your school sucks/sucked? i dont get ur logic

  • Jun 21, 2020

    the context of why we learn about ww2 now is different than why we originally entered ww2, the attitudes and reasoning changed over time. the US isn't the same country is was pre-50s virtually in any way, shape, or form. hell, the US isn't even the same country it was pre-80s. we're basically the same country in name alone
