In an eighth grade American History, we had to write a quick paragraph about what we feel will degrade America's prominence and some idiot Conservative kid wrote about how it would be socialism/communism. He said that because "The Nazis were communists." I immediately facepalmed.

Our homework for that was to write 20 sentences on why Communism is the greatest socio-economic system. Naturally, as a decent person and a Capitalist, I refused to take part in this filthy red propaganda.
What did you do?

tl;dr "What's so bad about communism?" is a valid question
Only for morons like yourself. Get over the whole "all people who badmouth communism are brainwashed!" bullshit, communism is bad because it's so easy to abuse and usurp. It also completely and utterly destroys creativity and innovation; both are expressions of individuality whereas communism focuses on everyone being equal. Since a doctor is treated the same as a janitor, why should the doctor work harder? It's not going to make much of a difference. Oh sure you'll get the odd doctor whose actually in the field to help people (God bless them, another thing communism hates) but for the most part it's a means to gaining lots of money and therefore of survival. Whereas over in commie-land the only plusses are being able to pat yourself on the back and being able to apply your medical knowledge whenever you get hurt.

tl;dr Communist is bad because it's flawed and can't survive the human element.
Basic research is fun. Please don't argue about political or social ideologies if you haven't the slightest interest in learning what they actually are. Doctors and Janitors don't live the same lifestyles in a communist society. I know outdated American propoganda is almost as effective as outdated Russian propoganda, and that's fine if you aren't interested and don't want to understand, just don't try and argue when you clearly haven't the slightest clue.

A gay friend of mine named Connor was being really obnoxious to all the teachers and the co-ordinator one day.

Co-ordinator: Please be quite, you're disturbing all the other students.

Connor: Eat my pussy *****.

In a really gay hilarious way, he got suspended for a few days, funny times.

Got the equivalent of an F for homework, naturally.

K through post grad school, bring your stories of stupidity in educational facilities here.

The things I heard in my time in school simply blows my mind. Some of my personal jems are:

"There's no such thing as a 2$ bill!" (I actually got into an argument over this one.)

"What's World War II?" (The same girl had to later be told who the current president was.)

"What's so bad about communism?"

*Epic face palm*

Edit: I'd like to thank everyone who has posted on this thread.

Most of the time my threads are either moderately successful of epic fails that get eight replies, but this little gem has gotten me my On Fire badge.
"Is france in asia?"

"korea is part of japn right?" (pronounced it japn, yes...)

and a discussion somehow erupted wherein what would happen if the sun went out

"omagosh, it would be like, so hard to see" don't know whats worse, the it would be hard to, or neglecting the fact that we'd be frozen

I have a good one.

I am in a 2nd set English class (1st being the highest), and we were discussing lord of the flies and a typical fake tanned - fake blonde girl said

'Is that the one where the massive flies eat everyone?'

She has since been removed from the class..

Har har har.

Wow, have I been wating for this thread.

In my history class.

Teacher: What's our nation's (America's) past time?
To which one student replied, completely serious, and with a completely straight face.
Student: Uhh, 24?

This was eighth grade... Thank you, public school.

Oh god, I had a few things but they pale in comparison to all of these said. One of my favourites was the thing about Martyrdom, that was funny.
