Governor DeSantis has forced schools to dedicate a class session to anti-Communist propaganda every November 7th, which is now designated "Victim of Communism Day". Why is there not also a day to mourn the horrific deaths many have experienced in the name of profits??? Either DeSantis believes they died for a good cause, or don't fit the propaganda narrative he wants to push.
The Victims of Communism Memorial Foundation (VOC) is an educational, research, and human rights nonprofit organization devoted to commemorating the more than 100 million victims of communism around the world and to pursuing the freedom of those still living under totalitarian regimes.
The Foundation was authorized in 1993 by a unanimous Act of Congress signed as Public Law 103-199 by President William J. Clinton on December 17, 1993. On June 12, 2007, President George W. Bush dedicated the Victims of Communism Memorial statue in Washington, D.C.
I guess to answer the OP - who are the victims of capitalism? You may want to establish that first.
The instruction will begin in the 2023-2024 school year for students enrolled in a U.S. government course. The bill requires at least 45 minutes of teaching about communist victims on the recognition day.
Perhaps because people aren't trying to leave "capitalist" countries. Remember the Berlin Wall wasn't built to keep people from going into East Berlin.
This does make a lot more sense to discuss for 45 minutes something related to Government in a Government course than an entire year learning about how the White Man has kept the Blacks down in a math class, or that a boy can have periods and give birth to a child.

Marxist believe societies work the same way as physics except instead of energy it is materials. So, when a group of people for whatever purpose has more material wealth than a group of others, no matters the quantity, then there is an imbalance and the playing field must be leveled. It must be leveled at any and all cost because that material imbalance is what causes wars and ultimately why we even need history. If everyone has exactly the same things, except the overlords because they have access to all available resources, then there’s no need for history. There’s no need for wars and there’s no need to even have to talk about politics anymore.
All of human history has been solved.

In order to influence or brainwash people, the following methods work best:
isolate them in new surroundings apart from old friends or reference-points,
provide them with instant acceptance from a seemingly loving group,
keep them away from competing or critical ideas,
provide an authority figure that everyone seems to acknowledge as having some special skill or awareness, provide a philosophy that seems logical and appears to answer all or the most important questions in life,
structure all or most activities so that there is little time for privacy or independent action or thought,
provide a sense of "us" versus "them,"
promise instant or imminent solutions to deep or long-term problems, and
employ covert or disguised hypnotic techniques.
Hmm… a philosophy that looks to explain all the miseries of life. If these explanations are given by a particularly narcissistic person you end up with despotic dictators and admired cult leaders. Those personalities are numerous from Jim Jones to Charles Manson to Hitler’s to Mao. They all have one thing in common, a totalizing ideology that allows the takeover of whole societies by an “intellectual elite.”
And they carry out their campaigns in the name of liberation.
The most important part is that information that is factual transferred from one generation to the next. Otherwise you end up with clown shows like North Korea.
All revolutions look to interrupt and/or alter that transfer of information.
LOL, I'm a victim of capitalism, it improved my standard of living and also makes people fat, tell me who am I supposed to hate??

Are you saying he's supposed to hate whoever came up with that horrifically bad poem? If so I would tend to agree.
