There is this additional growing issue here with some segments of conservative radio like patriot radio for example. Now they claim to stand for American history. They claim to stand against the far left. Yet they are the ones who insult the great American heroes of history like FDR and his cabinet members. I have heard this type of criticism toward popular democratic presidents from Andrew Wilkow and sonnie Johnson of patriot radio…. in fact I called into the patriot radio program one day and I was praising Roosevelt and then Johnson caught in and basically called him one of the worst racist ever. So just imagine that here is so-called patriot radio calling one of the heroes of America, the man that the World War II veterans of today admire …”as a racist.”I think it’s a shame that there are publishing companies in America that will put out this material that denigrates our heroes. And there not even about mutual respect what I get from these publishers is that they are seemingly always elevating the tribesman that fought against Andrew Jackson. And some of the far left give off this false notion that all of the Indians were united against the white man. as if they did not fight each other for land just as we Europeans have throughout history
So look it’s no problem I respect freedom of speech but it’s really fascinating that there are people who claim to be patriots who say they are conservatives here ….at the same time they hold Franklin Roosevelt in a negative light . It makes no sense because all the World War II veterans admire Roosevelt. And Republicans have always said they Admire the greatest generation of Americans which were the World War II generation. But I think it’s a relatively new thinking maybe it’s about 3 to 5% of Republican voters have these anti-American views where they hold people like Henry Ford or Franklin Roosevelt or even John F. Kennedy in a negative light.
The criticism toward Franklin Roosevelt for example is shortsighted it does not take into account the totality of World War II and the global situation surrounding it. And the fact that the Empire of Japan was one of the most ferocious empires to ever live they had agents operating all over the world. The usual line is the Fdr critics complain about the interment of Japanese people. Without mentioning that the majority of Japanese-Americans were not interned …this was Japanese Americans on the West Coast that were interned . They don’t mention that it was a whole different era the 1940s and the enemy the United States were facing like the third Reich and the empire of Japan were far more strict far more violent in their approach to domestic affairs. To think that the Third Reich were exterminating people. If it wasn’t for the Soviets Americans, Chinese and British there might not be any Jews in the world and other groups of so-called undesirables gone. So show some respect show some respect toward Franklin Roosevelt and the allies.
And the same conservative types they all hype up Mark Levin, they hype up countries like Israel. They denigrate these beautiful wonderful Americans like Henry Ford and Andrew Jackson. They’re hypocrites of the highest order they know full well that Israel has been accused of war crimes…. they know that people like Henry Ford have apologized for the previous anti-Semitic incidents. They ignore the key information and they just keep on spouting their propaganda.
I should say this is only an issue with a segment of conservatives. the point is that these segment of conservatives cannot claim to be patriots not if they denigrate people like FDR and Henry Ford. They have basically gone woke that’s what they are they are the “woke” part of the conservatives. They lose common sense because in their diluted minds people like Andrew Jackson or Henry Ford were racist that’s what they think of these great honorable men…That is an insult to history because they were men of their times and there were Jews blacks of the same time. Who had similar beliefs. So it’s just hypocrisy and it’s blatant hypocrisy.
Part of the reason why I voted Republican in the past few elections it’s because I’m tired of the far left people constantly insulting Christians claiming that great Christian people of history are racist or against Jews. And now to see one or two Republicans in this thread talking that way about people like Andrew Jackson and Henry Ford is a disgrace.
Let me tell you something if more Republicans talk like admiral Rockwell or 2aguy that they’re not getting my vote. I’m thankful that only a few Republicans talk like that. admiral Rockwell and 2aguy are on the same side as the far left BLM. They don’t understand history properly they take things out of context. They are not being historically accurate toward people like Franklin Roosevelt, Henry Ford and political parties like the Democratic Party of the 20th century which helped out the workingman. So they’re out of line to use the term racist toward these entities. Show some respect for America.
So yes I am a proud Democrat a proud FDR and JFK Democrat. And That means I support a quality man, I support unions, I support equality among man, the best person should be hired for the job I support the site of the physically fit steel worker.
And happy Thanksgiving to everyone here. I certainly do hope that the people who live in America who believe it’s OK to insult Andrew Jackson or destroy a statue of Andrew Jackson but give a pass to Africans or Jews of history who lived during the same time who may have also owned slaves. I really hope that they could have a more balanced look toward life. This great Thanksgiving day God bless.
