Belarusian Schoolgirls' Textbook Protest Sparks Political Firestorm
Belarusian schoolgirls' actions spark political debate. Two schoolgirls tearing up history textbooks in a TikTok video have prompted a strong reaction from Belarusian politician Oleg Gaidukevich. He commented, "What isn't posted on TikTok these days? Even trips to the toilet. Parents and children need to understand that there's an information war against Belarus, and such actions will be used against us." Gaidukevich's remarks highlight concerns about the influence of social media and the role of parents in shaping children's understanding of political issues. The incident has also raised questions about the Belarusian education system. The video of the schoolgirls' actions has spread widely online, leading to discussions about the information war and the importance of critical thinking among young people.
