It's no coincidence that the compulsory school attendance was firstly introduced in Germany by the Nazi Party 1938.
And the French under Napoleon Bonaparte, the Japanese during the Meiji Restoration, the Chinese after the establishment of the CCP and the US after WWI and another "revival" after WWII. Your comparison here is moot.
Later on school was mainly for teaching me stuff but the years 1-10 were just pure indoctrination.
Hmm, my experience was quite different, but I went to one of the top schools in Berlin, so I can't speak for everyone. Yes, school is in part indoctrination and I myself don't appreciate the anti-religious stance that public education takes. However, I grew up in a household where questioning the status-quo was our bread and butter.
I can say that my school life was significantly better in Germany than it was in the US.
Even the most fascist of all societies tolerate you if you are mainstream. In Germany being an American bashing leftist is just another part of the accepted mainstream, maybe if you take yourself to serious you might believe that the NSA is watching you but that's it.
Mainstream Germany is not leftist. Merkel is not socialist, even though she likes to look like one in the media. I also don't like being thrown in with the "American bashing leftists" as I tend to bash on a wide-scale. You'll note that I made a rather snarky remark about the Chinese in this thread.
It seems like chilrens rights is the new gateway for the fascist German mainstream society to suppress those who aren't mainstream. For example a couple of years ago the mainstream seriously discussed on eliminating Judaism from Germany 'again'
The debate of circumcision is a valid one. If you want to strip something from your child's body before (in this case he) has a chance to decided whether he wants to part with it, it's a violation of the child's rights, unless it's a threat to the child's health of course. Strange that Muslims aren't making such a big fuss about it as the Jewish community is, since they have the same practice. It's the Jewish community crying Nazi, because the German government did something they don't approve of, which is just another example of Zionism to me. If a boy wants to part with his foreskin, he can always make the decision himself when he's 16.
But not everybody should do it major thing you need
Money.
Patience.
If you had read the links I provided, that was clearly stated in one of the articles.
That's because you live in a country that make all other ideologies Ileagle.
Please back this up with at least an example so I can form a decent rebuttal.
