Wrong History - What surprises you?

[Syriusly]

"only the Japanese who had lucrative real estate holdings in California were locked up and forced to give up their property" is pop history.

The others are taught in school and college.

Japanese in New York weren't arrested. The real Japanese espionage center was in Hawaii but Japanese were not incarcerated in Hawaii. Did college Americans ever learn what the convoluted FDR violation of the Constitution actually intended to do. ....your turn

I have always said- that if you can't find something about any President to praise- or to criticize- you aren't looking at the President objectively.

FDR was a great war time President- and accomplished amazing things.

But he should also always be remembered for his gross violation of the Constitution when it came to the Japanese on the West Coast- and less we forget that was an action which was praised throughout the United States- and was hugely popular.

Japanese internment is something we should never forget because it shows how easily Americans can turn on a minority and ignore the Constitution.

I don't think George Bush was a good President- but I will always praise him for how he addressed Americans and took steps to prevent that kind of overreaction towards American Muslims.

dems can certainly be racist, and black dems and pubs can be racist against other races

Absolutely- racism is not limited by party or by race.

 

[Syriusly]

. It was a lose-lose situation and the culmination of years of anti-Japanese feelings in Californla.

Even more accurately- the culmination of years of virulently anti-Japanese propaganda and laws in California. The history of how the West Coast treated Chinese and Japanese is something that is not well known.

I just DID...LOL

You're not a very smart woman, am I right? Thanks for helping me make my case.

JakeStarkey declared: "The lie is that there was no Southern Strategy."
I observed: "The person who clings to a narrative when the facts don't support the narrative."
You arrive and back me up: "That one is easy...why would southern rednecks ditch conservative segregationist Democrats who voted AGAINST the 1964 Civil Rights Act?"

Try to pay attention pea brain... is this too hard for you?

My reply was to you stupid challenge...

Look, all you need do is work on your reading comprehension skills and the REFUTE the text below:

Of the 21 Democratic senators who opposed the 1964 act, only one would ever change parties. Nor did the segregationist constituencies that elected these Democrats throw them out in favor of Republicans: The remaining 20 continued to be elected as Democrats or were replaced by Democrats. It was, on average, nearly a quarter of a century before those seats went Republican. If southern rednecks ditched the Democrats because of a civil-rights law passed in 1964, it is strange that they waited until the late 1980s and early 1990s to do so.

And btw, I am a man you piece of shit. But you already knew that.

The problem, Clayton, comes from those that don't understand that progressivism is a big government philosophy for solving problems that comes in LEFT (communism) and the middle (democracy) and the RIGHT (fascism).

Compared to European social market democracies, the GOP and the Dems are centrist parties.

Fascism is Leftist

Yea Frank, a few short years ago you right wing turds were lock-stepping to dick-tator Bush, cheering war crimes and his suspension of writs of habeas corpus you were calling us 'fascists' pacifists and peace lovers...

You can't have it both ways Frank. Liberalism is an antonym of fascism.

 

[Two Thumbs]

FDR was our greatest President.

attempted to enlarge the size of the SCOTUS to seed it with his people b/c they kept stopping most of his anti-Constitutional shit
tortured citizens
imprisoned entire families
got us involved in WW2
made allies of russia

wow, the list of evil he did is endless

People still falling for these distortions is a bit surprising, especially at this sight where they have been repeatedly shown to be nonsense or taken completely out of context.

and here you are to prove me right

Are you saying poor blacks were not infected with stds?
are you saying Japs and Germans were not rounded up and put in camps?
do you really thing fdr didn't Need to get us into ww2?
we knew Stalin was an evil man going in, but we still made friends. Or are you claiming this isn't true?

Wrong History - What surprises you?

Americans don't realise, they started all the wars they were involved in since 1945.
Yes, every one, and have been involved of most of the rest, even ones that were nothing to do with them.

 

[Indofred]

Wrong History - What surprises you?

Americans don't realise, they supported Saddam's Iraq, and even assisted them in the fight against Iran.

 

[Indofred]

Wrong History - What surprises you?

Americans don't realise, they entered the war in Beirut, and the embassy attack was a direct result of US military actions.

 

[jon_berzerk]

The lie is that there was no Southern Strategy.

Of course there was, and it worked well over a twenty year period to create a GOP dominated south.

It was the greatest triumph of far right wing cultural mccarthyism.

I'm not surprised that many here deny it. At least they've heard of it. Of course they have all this bullshit to counter it.

But how many people have you run into that have no idea it existed?

Isn't it awful that people still insist on calling that big hot ball in the sky "the sun" when liberals keeping hammering into them that it's "the moon." Idiots.

You know who the idiot is? The person who clings to a narrative when the facts don't support the narrative. You know who the real dunce is, the King of the Idiots? The one who goes even further than the idiots and calls those who recite the facts idiots for rejecting the Liberal Narrative.

i was quite surprised to learn

that the left calls their base idiots

--LOL

useful idiots being the useful idiots that they are they

will accept what their leadership tells them

--LOL

I liked that guy. Respect him that he bases his politics on ideas rather than identity. Hopefully his straight talk reaches his audience.

 

[JakeStarkey]

And the far right continues to blather, denying the fact of the successful Southern Strategy,

 

[whitehall]

We are in deep shit when pop-history defends a president and his administration who rounded up, stripped them of their wealth and real estate and incarcerated (certain) American citizens without due process. It's as simple as that.

Fuck off, Tard. I rank the Bushs as Evil,EVIL. Total fucking scumbags

Modern American Liberalism IS Fascism

You have everyone under surveillence and if they dare to disagree with the government they get audited or killed

Your Obama Kneepads need a reorder

and again, Fuck OFF!

 

[Camp]

Reagan defeated the USSR is a falsehood that is accepted by his fan club, even though it isn't true.

 

[JakeStarkey]

Fascism, as those who do know what they are talking about, is major Progressive right wing totalitarianism.

Frank wants a right wing state of small government totalitarianism.

 

[Political Junky]

“What are the most common errors that people make when talking about history with you?”


That Nazi Germany was 'left wing.'

Where some get this bizarre notion is truly a mystery, as it is a settled and accepted fact of political science and history that fascism manifests on the right of the political spectrum.

Equally ignorant and ridiculous is the idea that the NSDAP was 'socialism,' merely as a consequence of the word 'socialist' being part of the Party's name.

It's totally dreamed up by the Right. According to the rewrite of history by the Right, everything evil that ever happened in the world was the fault of Liberals.
It doesn't matter how many links I or anyone else posts, the Right ignores and continues their version.
