Germans of reddit, how do they teach history there? Is anything "censored?" What lense do they view past german events in?

I finished school a couple of years ago, so it may have changed slightly since, but should be mostly the same.

We are educated on the historical facts that a decade-long government nearly a century ago was right-wing and did bad things, therefore everything right-wing is evil, and means we must have open-borders and communism, which have absolutely no bad history behind them.

They're also introducing pamphlets for children to "identify a Nazi parent" that exibits dangerous right-wing values, and report them to the autorities for hate-think. Which totally does not echo any East-German paractices in any way whatsoever.

Thank god for our public education system educating and informing the children for the future.
