Doug Mastriano acted in movie that critics say exploited the Holocaust to push right-wing agenda

Holocaust experts are condemning Republican Pennsylvania gubernatorial candidate Doug Mastriano after reviewing a low-budget right-wing film he acted in that likens the mass genocide of Jewish people in the 1940’s to abortion.

The Washington Post asked a panel of four Holocaust experts to watch the film and offer their perspectives on its message and treatment of the genocide.

Mr Mastriano acted in the 2019 film, Operation Resist, as did his son, who played a Nazi.

The paper reports that the film ends with a Jewish Holocaust survivor urging a modern-day school board to include information on the Holocaust in textbooks while also condemning gun control, big government, and abortion.
