  • Guys, Don’t Bake Swastika Cakes And Dress Up Like Nazis At School [Images]

    Australia seems to be on a mission to become the most racist and inappropriate place in the world.

    Or maybe the people there just have no idea what is and isn’t appropriate in 2018.

    Back in October, they held an “it’s okay to be white” vote which left some top-ranking officials a bit red-faced.

    Oh, and then there was that KKK and blackface Instagram post by a couple of idiot university students.

    And now, The Age with this:

    A Victorian state school employee is being investigated after he brought firearms into class, baked a cake with a swastika on it and let a student dress up in his Nazi hat.

    During a history lesson on World War II, the Dromana Secondary College employee also allowed students to play with a replica Zyklon B gas canister, which resembled one that would have been used to kill Jews.

    The items form part of the employee’s personal collection of military memorabilia, which includes helmets, rifles and uniforms once worn by Australian troops.

    The employee, who is not a teacher, uploaded photos on Facebook showing students posing with rifles, wearing a cap with a Nazi eagle and inspecting the Zyklon B canister.

    A concerned individual then alerted the Anti-Defamation Commission, a Jewish organisation which fights anti-Semitism.

    The organisation rightly noted that “the Holocaust, in which six million Jews and millions of others were systematically murdered, should not be the subject of funny games, entertainment and dress up”.

    The employee, who is a member of a Facebook group that sells military items from WWI and WWII, also decided to bake a ‘Fuhrer cake’ with a swastika on it after watching a documentary about Hitler.

    He posted a photo of the freshly-baked cake, which featured a swastika made out of apple slices.

    “I did a bit of artistic licence on the look but I’m really pleased it was brilliant with cream drizzled on it,” he said. “No wonder it was Hitler’s favourite cake.”

    He took the leftover cake to class, where admittedly the swastika was no longer visible. He also had his Nazi badge stolen by a student, which he lamented on Facebook.

    The school has apologised for the distress that the inappropriate lesson may have caused students and the community, reports the Guardian.

    “The intent of the history lesson was to educate students about the impact of World War II but some of the items brought into the class were entirely inappropriate.”

    You think? What was your first clue?

    Learning about the atrocities of the past is crucial, but somebody dropped the ball here.
