That FDR was an immoral, dishonest, irresponsible, power-hungry scumbag who violated our Constitution, robbed US citizens of their rights and property in a manner anathema to all our country stands for, climbed into bed with (among others) Communism, and saddled future generations with insupportable government obligations we cannot possibly pay for in perpetuity. Many posters have presented mountains of FACTS to support this argument and you have never ONCE attempted to address said FACTS. You merely fall back on logical fallacy like some futile mantra that can change the FACTS of history. You can't think for yourself and you won't even try because you know you don't have a leg to stand on.
Only the very naive believe this kind of revisionist history. The mountains of facts are not accepted as facts by historians and scholars. The sources used to establish "facts" are used the same way as sources for conspiracy theories and blatant political hack histories are used. They are unreliable, distorted, taken out of context, etc. One need only look up a few of the sources discribed as "mountains of facts" in this thread to discover the sources have in many cases been debunked long ago by multiple scholars and professional historians.
Which FACTS don't you believe? This is not "revisionist history," it's just plain history. The FACT is that FDR signed Executive Order 9906 and threw over 100,000 innocent people, the majority of them US CITIZENS into concentration camps. Barbed wire, armed guard towers, the whole works. Are you trying to say you don't believe this FACT? Are YOU trying to 'revise' history?
You know damn well they were not concentration camps. When speaking about WWII, concentration camps have a very specific definition. Concentration camps discribe places of horror where human beings were starved, tortured and murdered. Concentration camps were places were small children and grandmothers were treated like animals. So fuck you and your accusation that that kind of thing happened in this country by and to Americans. Everyone is in agreement that the Japanese internment camps were wrong. We also understand that the country was in a panic and feared that the Japanese had spys and sabateurs. We overreacted. We don't need assholes accusing us of doing something a thousand times worse in an effort to spread some negative propaganda and portraying us as being the same as the Nazi's. And anyhow, you are simply deflecting from having to defend the hack/conspiracy revisionist history you want to push, which is impossible to do with the shit sources used in this thread.
