aMorePerfectUnion: "Laughter is certainly addictive!"

American isolationism was always pretty laughable, but usually only in hindsight.

This is Dr. Seuss's take on it, circa 1940: --------->

One problem with 1940 American isolationists is that they were not only laughably stupid, many were also pro-fascist, pro-Nazi and/or anti-Semitic.
They were bad dudes doing "good work" for their true loyalties, which were not America.

Just like today's pro-Russians.

Trope.

Being against a war isn’t isolationist.

It is rational.

We have no reason to participate or spill the blood of our soldiers.

We still participate in trade, culture, education, diplomacy, etc.
