Oh hey, tapatalk finally allows me to see tweets. The question now is, should I now unblock Einbert so I can actually see his tweet spam?

You should let him take your wife furniture shopping then.

Sure, just ask Lance Armstrong.

Wasn't it America first that beat the Nazis and fascists 70 years ago?

I wonder how we would have fared vs. them, or the Soviets, had we been so tolerant and inclusive as we are today.

Yesterday was a pretty, pretty bad day for Trump PR-wise. Did he learn from his mistakes? Let's find out!

LOL

Such an ignorant post.

America First was a movement with Charles Lindbergh as a prominent leader and 800000 members lobbying to keep the US out of the war against the Nazis. It was a real historical thing, not just the words "America" and "First". So no, it was not America First that beat the Nazis. They didn't want to fight the Nazis because, like the Nazis, they were a bunch of racists.

You may continue if you wish. I don't actually think Trump had anyone killed. Because I don't believe in dumb conspiracies like you do.

Trump has killed a lot of people.

If you want something more specific that had Trump's personal approval.

There was a wide movement of pacifism in the United States prior to Dec. 7, 1941 and it had absolutely NOTHING to do with racism. However, both the patriotic pro war side and the patriotic pacifist side had to do with different peoples opinions of what was BEST FOR AMERICA.

I feel sorry for people who see everything that ever happens or any opinion they disagree with as a branch of racism. It's such a narrow minded, sad, myopic view of the world.

You asked the qustion did the America First movement defeat the Nazi's.

The answer in no the America First movement opposed war with them.

I wasn't talking about the party or movement from the 1930s you ignoramus, I was speaking of the sentiment of putting your countrys interests first (hence the lowercase f). In Canada it would be called Canada first. In Belgium it would be Belgium first. You know, what would be expected from people who lead a country of people.

In the time 1939-1941 there was wide division within the US regarding entry into the war, and it had nothing to do with racism. But both sides believed that either entry or non-entry was 'best for America.'

Oh another kind soul. Well the slogan has a history and its one of appeasement of the Nazi's at best and one of allegiance at worse.

The way you use it makes it and your questions and wonderings meaningless since everyone is American first, so...yeah...

wil will be crying "But we won, we won!" when they're carrying him and his family off to the death camps.

Only someone with the mentality of Nietzsche's slave can take such pleasure from a short term win while disregarding a huge long term loss to the country he purports to love,

I wasn't using it as a slogan though, please try and understand me. When I say 'Canada first' or 'America first' or 'Japan first' or 'Mexico first' it is not borrowing a slogan from Charles Lindberg or anyone else. It's a general sentiment, and that sentiment encompasses whatever you think is best for the country, with the caveat that you do what is best for the country FIRST. Those that fought in WWII, against Nazism, (including the black and native troops, which were segregated) were doing what they thought was best for their country, and I'm sure everyone from that time would agree with the sentiment. Ironically, Nazis believed also that they were doing what was best for Germany at the time.

Also, I didn't use the term AmericaN first either. The fact you instantly foam at the mouth at such an innocent comment is quite indicative of your pre-drawn conclusions and more indicative still of the contemporary tendency to tie neat little bows between things where no relation actually exists.

The trend for the better part of the last century has been to move away from nationalism towards globalism, and the sentiment 'America first' means mostly to get away from that trend because it has been a socio-political and economic disaster for millions of people. Millions of others affected by the same consequences of 'globalist policies first' believe in a socialistic framework ala Bernie Sanders and yet millions of others believe that electing a different face with the same status quo will help.

Everyone wants what is best for their family, friends, and country and you're no different in that regard from a Trump supporter, a Bernie supporter, a Stalinist or a neo-nazi. You can disagree with them all, but at least try and understand other peoples points of view because we are all coming from the same place.

The division that is kicked up whenever one side wins an election is despicable to me. We are all in this together, and we should attempt to work together rather than bicker and fight about every stupid little nuanced disagreement we might share.

Don't be silly.

Who cares how you use the phrase? You are wholly and completely irrelevant. We are discussing how the President of the United States and his allies/supporters use it.

"The trend for the better part of the last century has been to move away from nationalism towards globalism, and the sentiment 'America first' means mostly to get away from that trend because it has been a socio-political and economic disaster for millions of people.

This is how he means it.

Like i said the way you use it makes it meaningless and your questions about it dumb.


Also your first post was quoting the slogan America First and asking questions about it.

Lol, this isn't even worthy of a response.

Then the ensuing fun of answering the questions....


Do some of you even read what you and others write?

Do you have so much ideological concrete in your skull that you can't even tell the subtle differences in written text?

Also, to dispel this nonsense:

I guess all those men were virulent racists, huh? What a crock.

You're just tying bows between things that don't actually relate to each other because you are an ideologue that read some Salon/Vox articles. Pathetic.


From the same article:
What an utter fool you look like now smfh. Better double check your sources next time, huh?

You are the one going on a bender over this. Sorry i answered your question about the slogan you quoted.

Also never mentioned racism. I said at best they were appeasers of the Nazis and at worst allies. It like most groups had a diversity of ideas.

mercia frist *spit*
