I don't know, considering Nazis are becoming a problem again, it's a bad look.
They've been a consistent problem since the 1930s
Yes, ignoring and not acknowledging and teaching history is a good way to not repeat it.
lol, it's kind of fun to think of 'offensive' trivia
In what year did the Confederate States of America secede from the USA?
The the Soviet Union was the union of how many socialist republics?
Which two African nations remained de jure independent during "the scramble for Africa?"
They never got Ethiopia.
Thank you, History of the World I guess!
Ethiopia and Eswatini?

That sign below..
Only one ball🎶
Poor old Goebbels.
I'm guessing the Duckett Brothers would be less than thrilled about this.
The real reason MSU is deeply sorry, right there.
The fact that the sign right under reads "We never drop the ball" and this is coming form the game against Michigan where they lost 49-0 really brings it all together lol
