Strange Germans weren't rounded up on the east coast even though U boats were in east coast waters

There was a lot of negativity directed towards Americans with German surnames during both World Wars. Some ppl even Anglicized their last names for that reason. BUT -- none of them were rounded up and put into internment camps.

It is just incredible that Earl is defending this. If he had lived 80 years ago, he'd be turning in his Jewish neighbors as a threat to the Vaterland.

Again, derp, it is being presented as LITERATURE. We had to read "The Grapes of Wrath" in h.s. Today you worshipers-of-ignorance would ban that as well, since it doesn't show the plight of the poor struggling landowners ̶e̶x̶p̶l̶o̶i̶t̶i̶n̶g̶ employing the migrant Dust Bowl refugees. Then there was "Catch 22." Nope, no other side there, portraying the struggling Axis powers just trying to take over the world. Ditto for "Hiroshima," "1984," the kids in "Lord of the Flies," etc.

Basically what you desire most of all is to raise children as devoid of empathy, compassion, and critical thinking skills as you all are.

I am pretty sure Solzhenitsyn's "A Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovitch" is assigned or optional reading in college literature classes. I think Evince even read it for a high school class.

And I don't think conservatives ever demanded we hear Stalin's side of the story on the Gulag experience.

You seem to know all about the homosexual community

I know it’s a deviant, perverted lifestyle which, without outside intervention, would be. Death style lifestyle.

Okay, let me just put an end to your incessantly stubborn effort to avoid conceding a logical point for the objective, rational reader to see.

Your first sentence states Sslavery was obviously not a primary mover for the US revolution.

This displays either poor reading comprehension or intentional intellectual dishonesty to misrepresent parts of the discussion. Again, Hannah-Jones said that her piece “doesn't claim that (the Revolutionary War) was fought solely to preserve slavery, but it does claim that it was a primary reason that some colonists, particularly in Virginia, decided to join the Revolutionary War.”

Got that? I hope so, because it renders your little myopic story (which you do not document) not only unnecessary, but unaccountable to ALL the information in the links I provided.

See, that's the problem with your knee jerk version of conservatism....you isolate, you juxtapose, you promote supposition & conjecture as fact and you consistently try to detour a debate away from any facts that conclude contrary to what you believe.

Now folk like you NEVER admit you're wrong or concede a point. You'll just double down and spew various versions of what you already have done. So unless you've got something original and/or can give a true point for point debate, I'll just let you ramble on and move on to something else.

She makes slavery a centerpiece of her book. Using what amounts to weasel words to try and mitigate that doesn't change it. That is, slavery was a minor issue of little or no importance in making the American revolution. In fact, thousands of slaves ended up fighting in American militia and military units often being given their freedom in exchange for service--often paid.
If perpetuating slavery was a serious reason, explain how. That only 1.5 to 2% of all Americans at the time owned slaves indicates that that reason as a motivator would have affected virtually no one, and certainly not on a scale that would allow success in the revolution.

Hannah-Jones in her book makes it sound as if slavery were a major reason for the revolution and a major motivator of it. That's utter bullshit and she's been called out for that and other historical mistakes repeatedly now.

No, dummy, it’s indoctrination and propaganda.

So, you thought at first it was “exploiting” but then realized how stupid you are.

Good job.

You are beyond stupid. I'm done with you. Your soul sickness could be contagious.

Haben Sie einen nett Tag, faschistisch Arschloch.

Then you shouldn't do it. Problem solved.

Nonsense, horse mierda.

The internment, by up your ultra liberal president, FDR, was justified to win a world war that we were not winning, for most of the war.

Are you still a racist, that’s unattractive.

 

[ThatOwlWoman]

Just for pEarl. Here, wanker, park one of your impotent groans on this.

 

[Earl]

I don’t but you abominations want it taught as “normal” to six year old girls and boys.

 

[T. A. Gardner]

So since it's a personal account, it's fiction? Don't you wish.

Funny how you RWers weep and cry over the removal of Confederate statues and call it "erasing history," yet here you are -- defending the very same thing you think is cancel culture.

No, it's historical fiction. It's based on her family's experiences but isn't a factual account but rather a version that makes for a better read. It's like a movie where they claim the movie is based on a true event and the movie is nothing like the actual event by sensationalized to make it more enjoyable to watch.

 

[Earl]

No, God won’t be asking about the two “married” men down the street because God has already determined their fate.

 

[Earl]

You are beyond stupid. I'm done with you. Your soul sickness could be contagious.

So, you could have just said you capitulated.

You could have and saved a lot of time.

Are you still a racist and a lesbian?

Then you should be just fine with it, since it was being taught in a LITERATURE class, not a history class.

What will you freak out about next, English classes having to read "A Tale of Two Cities"? I swear you RWers get more Karen with each passing day. And to think you used to call us norms "snowflakes."

The “abomination” of homosexuality is addressed by God, in the Bible, which you obviously do not read.

A homosexual or a lesbian, like you, can not abide rules of life, consequences for poor and evil choices.

I already explained that. Let me do it a third time since you seem to have not been paying attention. As a history text, the book is worthless and should not be used. As a work of fiction in an English class it might have merit depending on how well it was written. I can't speak to that later part, and the book may well be well written and have merit, or it might be a work of mediocrity that is being pushed because of a political narrative. I don't know on that point.

I will remind the far left Democrat Socialist loons that the Supreme Court just ruled that there is no Constitutional right or enumerated power for abortion.

There also is no Constitutional right or enumerated power for same sex marriage.

 

[Earl]

There is an attempt by the left to force feed the morality of homosexuality to six year old girls and boys.

The Virginia landslide of a bright blue state turning to bright red should tell them where voters (parents) are about having input in their children’s education.

 

[archives]

Bull-fucking-shit!

No mass incarceration and internment of Americans of German, Italian decent. No rounding up and detaining/questioning Americans of Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, Slovakia, and Croatia origin or decent.

Racism was the basis...plain and simple. There is no other "justification".

Never said anything was justified, actually, stated it was wrong, however if you are teaching the internment you should explain the mentality that led to it, wasn’t all racism, there was a fear, a hysteria, that Japan could attack the West Coast, it was 1941, and Pearl Harbor was the first time the country had been attacked

Just remember who you're "Chatting" with, when it comes to what God is going to have to say to them someday when it comes to loving others....

That fear was justified by the sneak attack that killed 2400 American military and civilians at Pearl Harbor.

The ultra liberal president, FDR authorized the interment and he was right.

American lives were saved.

It was a world war that had no guarantee of an American victory.

The atomic bomb attack on Japan was justified too. It was estimated that 100,000 American lives were saved with a land invasion of Japan

The Japanese would have fought to the last man and woman and child. Their Emperor said so.
