Agree that it was about liberating mankind from nazism. But chaplin’s means of doing so was via “wokeness” and collectivism. Think about it. How do you defeat nazis by “wokeness” or collectivism. (Chaplin did not talk about defeating the nazis on the battlefield— as happened.)
Rather it appears that Chaplin’s idea was to turn the germans into “woke” collectivists—as is currently the case in Germany today. ...and as well the US democrat party.
Or is he speaking of the fight against nationalism and capitalism (which seems to be what he was suggesting). I was troubled by the proposal to do away with national borders. His use of "Greed" is also, IMO, synonymous with capitalism. No national borders and the abolition of capitalism seem to suggest he wanted communism. It's ironic -- he was pleading to do away with dictators enslaving the world, but seemed to be embracing communism. He is pleading for a world of reason, science, and progress -- all code for eliminating religion and working to perfect mankind.
By the promise of these things brutes have risen to power, but they lie, they do not fulfill their promise. They never will Dictators free themselves but they enslave the people. Now let us fight to fulfill that promise. Let us fight to free the world. To do away with national barriers, do away with greed with hate and intolerance. Let us fight for a world of reason, a world where science and progress will lead to all men's happiness.
