“For example, take the novel Mary Shelley’s Frankestein, which is a great classic, we all know it,” he told he Daily Caller in an exclusive interview. “Just because it’s part of our culture.”
“What they do is give you about three or four pages of Mary Shelley, not a selection from Frankenstein, but just writing about Frankenstein, and then you will have four or five of a modern author talking about frightening stories that she heard as a child that have no relation to Frankenstein.
..“Then on top of that, and this is in a leading text book they have five and a half pages, two more pages than the words you get from Mary Shelly, five and a half pages of a skit from Saturday Night Live on Frankenstein.”
In the skit, Moore explains, an actor makes a comment about Frankenstein having green skin.
That the skit is concluded by Frankenstein saying,
“Oh, so this is a race thing? What are you guys? A bunch of fascists?”
Moore also details teaching standards and notes about what the teacher wants to do at that point in the class.
“In the margin of the teachers edition, the teacher is instructed to explain the term ‘fascist’ to the students and to point out that the term ‘fascist’ is now applied to all right-wing extremist groups.”
