Stinks to high heaven of Social Darwinism, Eugenics, EcoScience, Margaret Sanger, the whole bloody lot of em.
What do any of the listed have to do with this article?
The way the Holocaust is talked about is as if it was the absolutely the worst thing that happened, and nothing could ever match. Holocaust is an incredible atrocity. But so were countless other atrocities.

Whether the children "learned" anything is of little importance. You could load up a bus of 11 year olds and tour them through Death Row and have a lifer explain to them how he methodically sliced up six victims, boiled them and had skin soup for lunch - and it could be said that they had "learned" something, too.
But they'd also be extremely traumatized. What is wrong with the so called "adults" on this planet?

Now, seriously. The teacher has to be mentally ill to do this type of thing; i personally think that the teacher should go to prison for at least 10 years for traumatizing the poor kids.
The "Holocaust game"... creeps the hell outta me, who in his mental right would play it is beyond my comprehension, i cannot imagine how ill i would feel if i were invited to play it.
Seen objectively, there may be the case that the teacher was sane altogether and wanted to teach the Holocaust to kids, i mean what better way to teach than playing a game about it, i would read a book instead but that´s just me.
Imagine if they were to show images of the Holocaust to the kids.
