Something I've noticed about the critics of FDR are that they are either
1. White trash southern hicks who only think in terms of labels like "SOSHULUST" or "BIG GUBMENT"
2. Contrarian yankee hicks like Styxhexenhammer666 who are uncouth to say the least.
>H-he sucked because he didn't perfectly implement my libertarian economic principles!!!
Not his job, first of all. Second, I don't believe you. I think you're just suffering from crippling class envy and don't like that he came from good Dutch stock, went to Groton and Harvard, etc. Grow up. How about you implement your own libertarian ethic and work your way out of a trailer park?

>HE WORKED FOR THE KIKES!!!!!
No, he imported semicaust survivors to districts that didn't vote for him, as punishment.

That was 90 years ago. I'm talking about critics in 2026. Your critical faculty is quite worthless.

He handed half of Europe to the Soviets.

the greatest human being ever, he crushed nazi pedophiles without mercy and forever destroyed their dreams about totalitarian aryan world

You never see this guy walking, whats up with that huh?

At least 80% of the legislation here was grossly unconstitutional.

>Can't contest their points in theads where they're posted so has to retreat to a circlejerk in the hopes to humiliate some strawman and through such regain morale
Pathetic.

I'm going to guess you didn't go to Hotchkiss. Close?

FDR was based and America hit its peak due to his domestic policies but his foreign policy decisions (cucking out to Stalin) were a fucking disaster and he needed a tardwrangler.

>FDR was based and America hit its peak due to his domestic policies but
there was no economic prosperity during his presidency. people were gnawing on tree bark and collecting wild onion roots for soup.
>>
>>18730440
A lot of people at the time thought Stalin was the man. Once you got over hyperbolic first red scare stuff it's not strange from an early 20th century perspective to assume that all of the very real bad shit Stalin did was fabricated, and that was even before a lot of it was known from Soviet sources.

Getting over Stalinism has been a long journey and so long as there are neoliberal Democrats, as the heirs to FDR and Stalin, it probably won't happen.

>economy is struggling?
>let's raise taxes and punish businesses for selling things and hiring people

>>18730057
It shouldnt be controversial to hate FDR if Keynes himself thought he was a dumbass when he visited the whitehouse.
>>
>>18730084
>>18730440
Truman was the one who formally rejected Operation Unthinkable. Nobody wanted to continue the war on the ground against hordes of Soviets all the way up to Berlin. Even if the Allies knew they'd win.
>>
>>18730153
Organized crime was a red herring, he really wanted to disarm the American populace to prevent armed revolts against his power grab.
>>
>>18730552
Operation Unthinkable was really just Churchill coping with getting punked by Stalin in eastern Europe, like the short-sighted retard he always was

If he convinces the masses and says he's Christian then MAYBE he can go to heaven...

>Southerners from a century ago were less likely to be racist hicks than their descendants
This is tolkien level worship of the past.

The criticisms of FDR are accurate and legitimate.
you just dont like it because FDR was the liberal version of fascism and you dont want people attacking your darling.

FDR was a popular favorite among racist ignorant peasants.
>he fought heckin Hitler
you would betray all of leftism to fight Hitler?
you would because you think its one step to progress at a time.

Youve already lost.

>Southerners from a century ago were less likely to be racist hicks than their descendants
Arguing with the voices in your head, I see. How pathetic. I ignored the rest of your "thoughts."
>>
>>18730080
the New Deal and WW2 did a lot to pull the South out of the Middle Ages, but ironically also helped turn it into a Republican stronghold down the road
>>
>>18731131
You’re the one claiming it’s Chuds who hate FDR but somehow the 1930s South wasn’t Chud central lmfao.
I know you read my post and couldn’t respond, your excuse makes you look weak doe.
>>
>>18731140
At the expense of everyone else and it caused another influx of nons from the south to White states in the Mid Atlantic and Midwest.
New England shitlibs and their cousins from Virginia downward should all be murdered.
Germans are just superior stock, Anglos are a blight.
That’s why the belt from Oregon to New Jersey is safe and productive while the Anglos on either side of it are subhuman orc hives.

>>18731140
The tl;dr was a bit complicated:

>the South was left in ruins by the Civil War
>during the Gilded Age nothing much was done to rebuild the place because of sectional politics--the Northeast had most of the nation's wealth and it was a solidly Republican region that had no interest in investing in the South because fuck them they were traitors to the country who lost the war not to mention Democrats
>the region remained completely impoverished and medieval for decades
>FDR comes and invests in the South via New Deal projects like the TVA
>during the war a lot of defense infrastructure is also built there
>this finally brings the region into the modern age and allows an actual middle class to exist there
>however, it also permanently turns it into a Republican stronghold in part because there's a lot of MIC jobs during the Cold War
>>

You're extremely stupid.

There has never been a single state in America where the average person's ancestry isn't 25% English and 25% German.
