    When will you two produce a video of the incarceration of the 110,000 Japanese Americans during WWII, and the political party responsible for the mistake? You must already know that Japanese American soldiers were part of the miltary that liberated Dauhau.

    Lost almost all respect for Ken Burns after hearing him compare sending illegal immigrants to Martha's Vineyard and all Americans left of Lenin as fascist. There is plenty of fascist corporatism happeing in the USA and across the world today as well as another banal rise in identity politics, most of it is on the collectivist left and the green facade of fascism used WEF types which probably sponsor this show and Mr. Burns.

    These films are always made as propaganda pieces right before a terror is inflicted on a nation. The Song Jerusalem of Gold was written in winter of 67 as a propaganda piece for the six day war which would come in June. There are many other occurrences of these types of scenarios.

    • @l337pwnage
      @l337pwnage 2 года назад

      Could be a connection, but the problem is they make a production like this every 2 years or so, so the odds of there being a coincidental attack are pretty high.
      Generally, the primary purpose of these is to keep the grift going.
      And don't forget, the 6 day war only lasted six say days because Israel failed to sink the Liberty and blame it on the Arabs. After that failed, they had to take what they could get and go back to playing the victim.

      O, in case you didn't hear about this snafu in their plans. I'm sure the thing that stood out the most for you, and I think is where they may have jumped the shark, is the attack on the U.S. in this piece.
      I"m sure a lot of people are confused and are thinking, "where did that come from?" Well, Poland passed laws in their country making it illegal to blame Poland for the Cost. Poland has put Name Changers in jail for this. I predict more pieces like this will come out attacking other countries before those countries also think to pass laws to protect themselves.

    • @voyagerone7487

      I met an older person who lived through that time. I am so fascinated when I meet people this old. The first thing I asked him, “Do you see similarities with what’s happening today?” He said yes. He did name drop Trump. I see it too. See, this is what I have to say to you: You can like Trump, you can like the cause, yes, you are allowed to believe and accept what you want, but what you shouldn’t be doing is walking around with this f’ing naïveté.
      Trump lost an election. He knew about it, but he ran with the lie because he couldn’t accept defeat. Your media and high-top figures know that trump lost, but you guys are peasants. They will get vaccinated, but they don’t care if you all do. They just want to win. Same shit as the civil war. The people were cannon fodder. Just like the lowest common denominator of MAGA is.
      In 2020, Trump’s gross negligence got thousands and thousands of people killed. And the pandemic became a wedge issue.
      Think of it this way, some of these elections weren’t huge in gaps. They were pretty close. How many of your own voters did you guys off?
      You guys are so lost and delusional. And the thing is that, Trump isn’t that smart. His biggest enemy is himself. But the MAGA garbage has been unleashed.
      You think for America, but you’re not. You just kneel to a master who has convinced you zombies of really stupid ideas.
      I think everyone who voted for Trump and continues to support him are really huge idiots. Genuine idiots. Like the dumb of the dumb. You. You are the chaos that ushered the Holocaust, but you’re too dumb to know it.
      Hence, the delusion. I don’t hate you, dude. I wish you and your family a long and happy life, what we all want, right? But you’re a dumb dude. Be better. Take this opportunity to get to know things.
      You will repeat this life to learn a simple lesson: Kindness.
      Like, you think Jesus would have voted and supported Trump? Queen take a seat. You guys are honestly really embarrassing and I don’t even know how to interact with you al anymore.
      I really hope you educate yourself. I really hope you take the initiative to learn and grow.

Why doesn't Mr. Burns do a documentary on that and modern slavery in Communist China and GM and Blackrock, State Street, Vanguard etc. links to current slavery TODAY? I think we all know the answer. Before you compare others to fascists maybe you should take a look in the mirror before your next state sponsored montage.
