I have a leftie telling me that because Cheney endorsed KH , we should take that as evidence that she is a bad candidate and NOT AN ANTIFASCIST.

I kept pointing out that Patton and Stalin invaded Germany and HATED each other. “Ally of convenience” is not a friend. As long as no concessions are made, the best thing you can do is let two enemies destroy each other.

After the main danger is vanquished, we excise our “once and future” enemies the neocons.

And Patton wanted to recruit the Germans and take the lead in Operation Unthinkable lmao

His comments coupled with slapping that soldier earned him a demotion. Really poor example.

Those who do not learn history are doomed to... clown themselves on social media.

I saw a comment on an .ml instance post about this (maybe a .worlder) saying "WOULD YOU HATE DOGS JUST BECAUSE HITLER LOVED DOGS???"

Well, no. Nor would I if Cheney loved dogs. If Hitler endorsed my political candidate, however...

Ask this person what they think of Molotov-Ribbentropf

They really typed that out sadness-abysmal

and Patton regretted it every day. Ike was the one really pushing for helping and working with the USSR.
