Yeah because fascism and democracy go hand-in-hand. Am I right?

I think you are confusing 1941 America with 2020 America.

Germans and pro-Nazi party in the U.S.... especially in NY were pretty connected to the power players in U.S. government. There was tremendous pressure on us to stay out of it, not support the UK, France, etc...
Had Germany not sunk the Lusitania we might not have every gotten involved. Not sure how many people understand that most Americans wanted nothing to do with WW2.
Mea Culpa on the Lusitania.

there was a time when fanatical cult of authoritarian personality was an anathema to the American political culture.

The Germans saw themselves as the defenders of a free Europe. many of them when captured wondered why we were helping the communists defeat them.

Listen Linda, I didn't say I agreed with them, only passing along their point of view. Never said it was correct.

Because they knew that by 2020 we’d have practically destroyed ourselves with a bunch of stupid bullshite.

You think the USA was ideologically closer to Germany than Great Britain?
Yes. There were Germans living in America. But a heckuva lot more people of English descent.

I know, right?
Nothing says freedom like secret police that assassinate dissenters and their families. What country wouldn't welcome that type of freedom from a foreign invader?

You mixed your wars up bigly

Lusitania was WWI and was not the main reason we joined that war either.
