How can you be 43 and not know who Hitler was and what he did?

49. No! They are saying it's not his fault he didn't know.

When college-graduated Democrats say that somebody has only a HS education, they mean that maybe this person has not had the chance to learn about things like Hitler and his nazi thugs. This is not meant to blame people who did not go to college, only to blame their HS administrators, or maybe their HS teachers, who were supposed to tell them the basic things they needed to know, which would surely include the Holocaust where at least 11 million people of ALL ages, even infants and children, (including at least 6 million Jews) were herded into cattle cars with no food or water for days and crammed into death camps to be either horrifically gassed and burned to death or else slowly and sadistically tortured to death. Not to mention that Hitler's nazi regime treated all working class people as if they had no real rights except the right to worship Hitler with much the same fervor shown by Trump's worshippers.

I come from a long line of poor men and women who wanted to go to college but mostly had to work their heads off just to feed themselves and their families. My mother spent her few leisure hours educating herself, reading library books about history and geography and philosophy and math. And she shared what she learned with us and urged us to go to college. I was the first in my line to get a bachelor's degree, and then a master's degree (in a helping profession, speech therapy). Believe me, I know both sides of it. Yes, there are a few Democratic college graduates who are disdainful of working class people, but not many. Most Democrats have family histories full of working class people, and they are proud of these ancestors. That is why they are Democrats.
