I think I was in 6th grade when we spent a week or more watching a movie called "The Wave" I think I'm going to force my children to watch it now that they're about that age.
Holy shit - you just awakened a memory of watching that in civics class in high school in the 1980s. I had forgotten the name of it, but it left an impact on me.
The Dollop did an episode on this if anyone wants an audio tldr. Shit is crazy but makes sense of how we got here. Its still fucking crazy and not normal through.
