dictators, extremists, and even terrorists are supported by their followersby setting up arguments based on selective focus on accomplishments in areas other than domestic and foreign policy, e.g. the construction of highway (Reichsautobahn). This can take place especially when extremism is discussed in the classroom. Can the accomplishments in selected domains (e.g. infrastructure, employment rate, economic growth) of a regime that used the outcomes of these achievements for inhuman and morally evil purposes be morally assessed without due consideration of crimes of war and the Holocaust? Or, in a more complex way, were the abovementioned accomplishments an instruments that contributed to the ability of the Hitler\u2019s regime to do evil deeds?\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tFirst, ask students to read the following article: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/us-news\/2021\/jul\/06\/donald-trump-hitler-michael-bender-book\">Trump told chief of staff Hitler \u2018did a lot of good things\u2019, book says | Donald Trump | The Guardian<\/a>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tSecond, let them write an essay about the article answering to following questions:\n<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n\t\tWhat was the perspective of Trump?\n\t<\/li>\n<li>\n\t\tWhy it is dangerous to \u2018sugar coat\u2019 Hitler\u2019s actions?\n\t<\/li>\n<li>\n\t\tCan you bring any examples of \u2018sugar coating\u2019 extremists, dictators or terrorists?\n\t<\/li>\n<li>\n\t\tCan the accomplishments in selected domains (e.g. infrastructure, employment rate, economic growth) of a regime that used the outcomes of these achievements for inhuman and morally evil purposes be morally assessed without due consideration of crimes of war and the Holocaust?
