I think a few here is fond of the old Franklin Delano Roosevelt, but looking into the actions that he did during the years into the prelude of World War 2 was really interesting. At his behest, he supplied Joseph Stalin and the whole Soviet Union of military equipment and intelligence to prepare for the Nazis. I really don't think that Americans during at the time was on board with supplying another enemy, the communists, with their own handmade products just to hold off the Reich.
Let's not get started with the internment camps he did against Americans of Japanese lineage after the Pearl Harbor attacks, how the Democrats were tight-lipped about it to this day, and the communist project that the former First Lady, Eleanor Roosevelt did in Arthurdale, Virginia, that was still left untold on how many people died due to starvation on that god forsaken experiment of hers.
That's called balance of power. A Germany that conquers the USSR would be a regional hegemon and thereby a threat to America.
Exactly zero percent of the right-wingers attacking him for that have any problem with it. It's an "I hate Abraham Lincoln because he was a racist"-tier argument.
I'm one of those right-wingers that have a problem with it.
Props, but I think it's generally a criticism that is made in quite bad faith. In retrospect, it was a bad policy, as Japanese Americans were loyal to an astonishing extent, but it's easy to second-guess.
Please, the majority of the right isn't even prepared to entertain the concept of racial internment. The only people on the right who would welcome it are the extreme white nationalists. Particularly in regards to Asians.
What if racial internment were necessary for the survival of the country?
