1/2 I don&#39;t think enough people are paying attention to &quot;America First&quot; and what that *really* means. These people might be anti-war, but they are still fascists at heart. The current &quot;America First&quot; movement isn&#39;t even a re-brand. it is the same name and same goals as before, but because Americans don&#39;t know their history, they think this is something new. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/America_First_Committee #uspol #americafirst

2/2 And Father Coughlin was the "Rush Limbaugh" of his day. Again don't get things twisted, these people were anti-semites, just like the current "America First" incarnation https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Coughlin #uspol #americafirst

@hasani good thing the tactics don't change, so it's easier to spot. Unfortunately, as stated, most Americans don't know their own history.

@hasani Please boost this toot ⬆️. It links to the @wikipedia page for the ‘#AmericaFirst *Committee*’ formed September 4th, 1940, *during* #WorldWar2 but *before* the #UnitedStates joined the #AlliedForces - including #Canada - who had declared war on #Nazi #Germany almost 2 years earlier. Both sides of the #CivilWar among #Republicans claim the #AmericaFirst *slogan*; the #Nazis pair it with a shield, the #Talibangelicals feature an eagle. https://www.huffpost.com/entry/new-award-donald-trump-reaction_n_69c4cb1de4b0e447525c3260?origin=home-latest-news-unit
