    Libs know exactly ONE thing about history - that Chamberlain tried to appease Hitler by letting him take the Sudetenland, and it didn’t stop him - and think it’s some universal truth that applies in every situation.

      That exact analogy has been used by high ranking US officials to justify nearly every conflict since the WWII, including Korea, Vietnam, and the War on Terror.

        It’s also not true at all, i.e not a fact. Chamberlain wanted to collaborate with Hitler, not appease him.

        Of course this is only surprising to Liberals who can’t imagine why the leader of the British Empire would be a fascist 🤔💭◻️

      it’s so nice to be able to reduce the world to simple stories and metaphors

      i know the soviet union sucked bceause i’ve read (a summary of) animal farm

      i know violence is not the answer because i watched that one MLK car advert and idk ghandi or smth and also professor x is better than magneto

      i know putin is evil because someone compared him to voldemort and also its probably because his mom didn’t love him
