A German kindergarten named after Holocaust victim Anne Frank will change its name in order to be “more inclusive”.

Of whom? Nazis?

Honestly, I give up. I am now convinced we are living in some kind of weird simulation.

The kindergarten director in the East German village of Tangerhutte explained that migrant parents found it difficult to explain the story of Anne Frank to their children.

I wonder what religion these migrant parents might subscribe to.

I knew Angela Merkel was wrong to allow all those Presbyterians into Europe back in 2015.

But seriously, what religion might make it difficult to explain the story of Anne Frank to your children? Did I say difficult? Perhaps ‘problematic’ is a better word.

Anne Frank was the 15-year-old Jewish girl who kept diaries during the Nazi occupation of Amsterdam. She died in the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp in 1945.

Her diaries were published after the war, and posthumously, Frank became a global symbol of courage in the face of monstrous evil.

No wonder migrants want the name of their kids’ kindy changed. We can’t have Muslim kids feeling empathy for Jewish kids, otherwise, who will kill the Jews?

Cancelled

Maybe they could change the kindy’s name from Anne Frank to something more neutral, like, you know, a number?

It’s not without precedent.

I suggest a number between A-25060 and A-25271.

No?

You’re right. I’m not really getting into the spirit of this, am I? I’ll try harder.

Let’s put our thinking caps on and come up with a new name for the Anne Frank Kindy that might better reflect the “diversity” of Europe with its enlightened, tolerant, compassionate, open border policy.

What about ‘Muhammed Bin Hitler’s Child Caliphate Camp’?

Too wordy?

How about ‘Aisha Kindergarten’?

Too far?

Certainly too dangerous.

I’ll stop.

Cut to the Chase

Kindy director Linda Schichor said the name Anne Frank was non-inclusive, by which I suppose she meant it fails to include anti-semites, by which I suppose she meant the million or so migrants Angela Merkel welcomed into Germany back in 2015.

But the problem with Anne Frank’s name was not just the lack of inclusivity. Schichor lamented that the name was also too “political”.

She told journalists:

“We wanted a name without a political background.”

Question: ‘Was gassing six million Jews wrong? ‘

Answer: ‘Well, it kinda depends on your politics.’

Conclusion: The asteroid is surely due any moment now!

Schichor told the media:

“Parents with a migration background often don’t relate to Anne Frank.”

To which I would reply, ‘At least, not without a knife in their hand’.

Can we be frank about Anne Frank, if you’ll pardon the pun?

The problem with Anne Frank is not inclusivity or politics. The problem is, well… Jew.

Anne Frank was a Jew. And Anne Frank was murdered for being a Jew. And now Anne Frank must be erased from history because she was a Jew.

Some of us saw this coming in 2015. We were called bigots.

Western Europe has imported its own end.

We in Australia ignore what author Douglas Murray called “the strange death of Europe” to our own detriment.

And yet, I fear we will do just that.

We are intellectually lazy, morally squidgy, and altogether too cowardly to dare to even protest our own demise.
