For the government to bring a bunch over in Project Paperclip? I don’t think they were ever against fascism; they didn’t like Hitler’s version because they didn’t benefit.
And even then there was significant support for the nazis among influential whites, before they started threatening the territorial integrity of Western nations. The US’s principled opposition to fascism has always been a retcon.
Though while I don’t like how it completely blinds Americans to the dangers of homegrown fascism, I will say there are much worse stories to base a national mythology on. In that sense it was nice while it lasted. Pretty much the same goes for Russia.
Actually, drag is hoping to get banned by the community mods so that the modlog will say that drag was banned from c/conservative for advocating violence against Nazis. A well maintained modlog is full of ban reasons that good people can easily disagree with.
The CEO killer did the right thing and drag hopes more people follow in his footsteps.
America’s greatest deed was killing a million Nazis. Killing Nazis is great.
