I see a lot of people recently calling Chamberlain “spineless” and saying that he “caved” to Hitler or “sold out Czechoslavakia in exchange for empty promises.” But this is really problematic because you’re not thinking of all the people who would’ve gotten hurt if this deal didn’t go through. I mean, nobody wants a repeat of the Great War. And look, I hate Hitler as much as anyone, but he’s given us his word that he’ll be content with taking only the Sudetenla-
Sorry, what’s that? Oh, I see.
As I was saying, Mr. Hitler has given us his word that he’ll be content with just annexing all of Czechoslavakia.
What was he supposed to do? Throw Europe into a major conflict, just because some fascist seizes power, removes any semblance of democracy, and starts terrorizing minorities?
Look, at the end of the day, capitalist or fascist, we might not see eye to eye on every little detail but it’s important to be the bigger person and reach across the aisle and give them every chance to stop being belligerent.
I mean, after all, if we can’t work together, then who’s going to kill all the leftists?
The difference between the two, of course, was that at the time they thought Neville had really done it, and I can’t even fathom even Schumer thinking he’s done a great thing.
Schumer is still opposed to ending the shutdown to my knowledge.
What in the… Yeah you’re right. I thought I had heard he was working on a deal and I’m so used to disappointment from him. The eight Dems are:
Edit: Now I’m hearing possibilities that Schumer did mastermind this, and these eight were picked? Fuck it either way, still hate the guy for being such a schmuck.
