The United States Dept of War produced a film called “Don’t be a sucker” in 1947 specifically addressing the tenets of Nazisim and fascism in a bid to prevent this from happening again.

It’s amazing that almost 80 years later, that we are having the same conversation (about Nazis)

“We human beings are not born with prejudices, they are always made for us, made by someone who wants something.

Remember that when you hear this kind of talk, someone's going to get something out of it and it isnt going to be you”

Should be required viewing in every middle/highschool class.

How about every Independence Day?

Just the first film, the sequel isn’t necessary.

Do yourself a favor and forget that he ever said anything about a sequel.

Fantastic video, I cannot emphasize that enough. Though after watching that, here is another modern take, discussing how such groups have updated their tactics since those olden days: https://youtu.be/P55t6eryY3g?si=R5iFPnnehTWvidCc.

Edit: it seems that trolls have managed to get this video age-restricted by reporting it. Here is a link you can use to bypass those: https://yewtu.be/watch?v=P55t6eryY3g. It is much slower and has huge buffering issues for me but it does play at least.

Wow. It’s age restricted and can’t be watched without logging in.

If it’s the video I think it is that’s just shameful…

Ah, here I found a link that does not have age restrictions: https://yewtu.be/watch?v=P55t6eryY3g. It doesn't buffer well for me though.

You can watch conservative propaganda on YT if you want no problem, but several of the Ian Danskin works get age-restricted for ah... "unknown reasons". No sex scenes, no nudity, no explanation of any kind why this would occur, but presumably someone is spamming that 'report' button to cause it. Tbf videos like "the semiotics of "cuck"" I understand, but the justification for this one escapes me.

You can use this script

https://github.com/zerodytrash/Simple-YouTube-Age-Restriction-Bypass/

To bypass the login requirement for restricted youtube videos. You need to install tampermonkey or something similar in order to use it. There are instructions in the linked page.

Seems like what we are seeing is the natural progression of an oligarchy. Jolly good read: https://terikanefield.com/making-sense-of-it-all-a-journey-through-books-part-1/

Such a good video. I'll listen to anything delivered in this old (transatlantic?) accent too.

Oh great even the Atlantics going woke. Do I have to use sea/her?
