Pigs and apes
When I read that the principal of a school had admitted that it used textbooks that called Christians "pigs" and Jews "apes", I thought, yeah, that's a sad fact about "education" in Syria. But no, this is in Acton. Once I'd got over the what the fuck moment that it induced, I started thinking, doesn't this kind of school get tax money?I'd like to take the principal to one side and say to her, Look, tolerance is not just something we show to you. This is a message seemingly lost on many of our societies' intolerant members. It's not just something you get, like the dole or a free education.
