We did it chat. We got to the part with the fascism. The real-deal that makes the world worse in every conceivable way and haunts us until this very day. What that? No, not Germany in World War 2, the United States in World War 1! This week, we learn about the pogroms and Americanization campaigns that swept the nation in the early 1900's to force assimilation on everyone or send them to die on the other side of the Atlantic. Oh, and also to send the national guard to oppress literal millions of striking workers. What's that (again)? You don't feel like that is meaningfully distinct from the behavior of the American regime at any point in American history? Well, you're right. But it's different now, because America has machine guns and artillery, and that's so much worse for workers everywhere. At least the Soviets are here now and will one day ensure fascism doesn't consume the globe. It's chapter 21 of The History of White People!
