I'm not even making an accusation of ideological inversion.

Most of The American Left in 1940 were with the Isolationists on the subject of entering the War in Europe. BreadTube videos want to focus only on the Right Wing Isolationists and pretend it was only a right wing phenomena among Nazi Sympathizers, but it wasn't.

The CPUSA took their marching orders form Moscow all through the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact, but it wasn't just the same, it was the same with all three Trotskyist parties and the Socialist Parties that predated 1917 and the Anarchists including some who were Jewish (Emma Goldman and Paul Goodman) and everyone still alive who had been Anti-War during WW1 falsely comparing WW2 to that war just as people are now falsely comparing this to Iraq. That includes Suffragettes like the first woman ever Elected to Congress who even voted agaisnt the War after Pearl Harbor and Dorothy Day.

And even a revered Black Civil Rights leader who argued we should flat out root for Japan because they are resisting White Western Imperialism, his name was W. E. B. Du Bois.

I’ve been trying to add a little more human understanding everywhere I go, especially in terms of people. I won’t go too far into my pursuits but I would like to see everyone as they are, that of which I can’t quite define yet. For now, I say I’m looking to give them depth and broader links to subjects that breed awe and intrigue. Share your thoughts on my writings, as they’re very much appreciated.

It is always the one that is underestimated in a crisis that is an unpredictable factor.

But the last laugh is on you!

Pacifists

Elwood solía ser una ciudad tranquila, sin mucho ruido. La gente disfrutaba los fines de semanas silenciosos, en un ambiente familiar que distaba bastante del ajetreo en las grandes ciudades. Sin embargo, con las nuevas medidas del gobernador, de pronto Elwood dejó de ser aquel lugar pacífico que todos esperaban que fuese. No era extraño ver a personas que no parecían de los trigos limpios y, pronto algunas desapariciones comenzaron a hacer ruido en las calles de la ciudad.

Elwood se convirtió en un caos y las personas nacidas y criadas en este lugar no estaban acostumbradas a esta nueva realidad. Ellas comenzaron a organizarse, comenzaron a manifestarse y son quiénes quieren que todo vuelva a la normalidad, que los “invasores” se vayan de la ciudad y que la localidad en la que nacieron vuelva a ser lo que siempre fue. Están seguros de que la culpa es del alcalde y de la poca seguridad que existe en la localidad, por lo que siempre alzan su voz, sin miedo a decir lo que piensan.
