Why are you being so rude? Please don't put words in my mouth, that is nothing like what I believe.

My views are something like what the average American believed in 1910. Were they literally Hitler also?

1910's America with Jim Crow segregation, pre-Womens suffrage, pretty much peak wealth inequality with robber barrons?

That's not really a great counterpoint considering how much inspiration Nazi Germany took from the amazing levels of racism the US had. Jim Crow, miscegenation, segregation, citizenship

The average American in 1910 wasn't a little Hitler, he was a Big Hitler. Hitler's father, even.

Good try, though, eierkuchen. I can see past you and so can everyone else.

America had a pretty decent sized fascist movement in the early 1900s.
