Nazi props were temporarily declared verboten in LaGuardia High School’s production of the Third Reich-set classic “The Sound of Music” prior to the show’s Thursday night opening.

The principal at the elite “Fame” school, Lisa Mars, ordered Nazi flags and symbols removed from the stage set of the beloved tale of the Von Trapp family, who fled the Nazis from their native Austria as Adolf Hitler took power, students told the Daily News.
"This is a very liberal school, we're all against Nazis,” one sophomore performer told The News about the fuhrer furor. “But to take out the symbol is to try to erase history.

The prop flags and emblems were all designed and created by the theater students at the performing arts school, but Mars had insisted they all be removed from the stage, the students claimed.

“It’s still going to be a great show,” a senior working in the production told The News. “I’m not going to say it was going to be a bad night because this happened. But it would have been better to explain the symbolism than to just take it away."

What the Nazis did was so terrible every mention of them should be erased from history so that no one remembers how terrible they were!

Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it.

Mmm hmm.
The antii fascists have become the fascists

There is trouble in the forest
And the creatures all have fled
As the maples scream 'oppression!'
And the oaks, just shake their heads
So the maples formed a union
And demanded equal rights
'The oaks are just too greedy
We will make them give us light'
Now there's no more oak oppression
For they passed a noble law
And the trees are all kept equal
By hatchet,
Axe,
And saw

It never fails to amaze me how stupid and out of touch with reality that the left is.

I wonder how they would have internalized their dislike for Nazis, as well as the alpha male types that it took to extinguish said Nazis?

Show should be banned. Von Trap essentially used his position of power and influence over Maria to take advantage, seduce and deflower her. She was a training-Nun for Pete's sake!

sarcasm.

The kids, several which are Jewish, are the voices of reason in this scenario. The principal is just a SJW looking to be offended.

This school is known for its music and arts programs and she’s been cutting funding for those programs since she got there. Most of the parents hate her. The only thing keeping her around is that she’s black.
