FDR was strongly anti-fascist. He prioritized victory in Europe first. Prior to Pearl Harbor, he had to overcome the America First movement which was isolationist to Nazi curious (cross ref: Lindbergh, Charles).
He was not anti fascist, he was anti any ism that wasnt american capitalism which included communism. He was an ok leader in comparison to the rest of our histories roster, but still wouldnt be acceptable by todays standards
It's heartbreaking to think about.💔 My husband and I are on a roadtrip and while we were chatting he said "You know, I think the U.S. has peaked out and we are now failing." 😢
I go between extreme anger to extreme sadness to extreme fear and back around again.

But because Hepburn is an impotent, racist piece of shit, he can overlook genocide when it affects Muslims.
Fuck off, Hepburn, back to whatever hole in Scotland you were vomited out of.
