Yes and if the 1930's mentality continued it would have been all of Europe and North America too.

Your extemist thinking and, as I said, your all or nothing fallacy is what discredits you. The John Birch Society is a home for people like you. However, the JBS will not be a factor in this country and neither will your dogmatism.

The author is quite correct about what he wrote. America was changed dramatically by both events and in both instances they prevented the continuation of a trend that people like you could not prevent because nobody listens to the negativity and dogma you espouse.

That is the part that makes no sense.

The mentality did continue and took over both the 'Left' and 'Right' in this country.

I am not a JBSer, though I wish them all the best, just an Old Right Conservative Libertarian.

Yes, I concede the Reds won the culture war, but we are still well armed.

"America was changed dramatically by both events and in both instances "

America was pushed further towards the abyss with each event, thanks to a discredited and incompetent central tax-regime, that much is true. Its only response has been "More warfare and more welfare," financed and paid for with the labor and blood of the young.

Your last line is correct, that is why we call you sheep.
