As the control of the Senate hangs in the balance, GOP candidates across the country are facing a similar problem: Troubling and bizarre past statements, both in-person and on social media, are coming back to haunt them. But in Minnesota, Royce White is an even more extreme case.
“The bad guys won in WWII. There were no ‘good guys’ in that war. The controlling interests had a jump ball. If you look closely, you see the link between liberalism and communism in the Allied forces.”
Just another demented MAGA turd trying to sound intelligent. All the buzzwords are there to keep the base frothing at the mouth: liberal, controlling interest/deep state, bad, communism.
It's a fucking Nazi coward afraid to speak their true feelings. They say both sides, pretending they feel both were bad, but you can see their real opinion.
Quote him: "There were no ‘good guys’ in that war."
It isn't enough to criticize him for not considering the Allies the good guys, but you just have to go that one step further and claim that he believes something that is directly contradicted by what he wrote?
It's like people are afraid of encountering someone who is less than 100% wrong/bad/evil, and refuse to believe there is anyone between 'saint' and 'demon'. Must be exhausting living with such a starkly binary outlook.
In one specific interaction from Monday, White told a potential voter to “pull their skirt down” and that “nobody cares about your preferences,” to which the voter replied “f— you then! You just lost my families support.”
This dude’s relatives would have been gassed and cremated or introduced into a life of indentured servitude had his revisionist fantasy come to fruition.
Dude thinks because his last name is “White” that he is white.
Not even worth putting the time into writing why his opinion is based on imagined idiocy and not historic fact thinking the liberals and communists were aligned after WW2 at the start of the cold war and the Warsaw pact and NATO squaring off or Patton was assassinated, just a grand display of the best and brightest moron Minnesota conservatives have to offer.
To a degree yeah, bunch of them made it to US and went unpunished and now spew this shit.
(edit: or obviously whoever heard them and thought "Hmm yes yes genocide and stuff great ideas dad/grandad/friend/whatever." Probably can't even specify if it's the Nazis or Russians since they would have rather worked together, until the backstab...
The USSR spent the 30s trying to form an alliance with literally everyone in Europe to fight the guys who declared communism their enemy. The western allies expected Germany and Poland to invade the USSR, for them fascism was the answer to communism, hence why they gave the Sudetenland to Germany and Poland, made the Anglo-German declaration of 1938, and why Britain tried to join the Winter War, but was only stopped by Sweden refusing transit.
The USSR wasn't trying to work with Germany, they were taking the only path that would give them time to build up and draw the rest of Europe into its war with Germany.
I'm Jewish, I'm very aware that the side running brutal racist internment camps was meaningfully less bad than the side running brutal genocidal death camps. Neither qualify as good.
Inaction is as much a choice as action. When an invader comes to your town and starts killing innocents like children, and you chose to not act, you’re a little bit complicit.
Pacifists are just as unethical as the rest, because it allows, permits and other condones violence.
