"Wait a minute" None of this surprises you. Youre doing this for show. You want us to feel guilty about our beliefs, and your plan is to act shocked and bewildered by things you know. Begone debate-pervert

There were Nazi groups in the US at the beginning of WWIi. They were quite large. Within a year, every leader of the Bund was interned or jailed as dangerous aliens, and by the end of December 1941, the US Government outlawed the German-American Bund

The US jailed and outlawed a group sympathetic to their enemy during WWII. So, I'm not shocked that Ukraine did the same thing.

Don't say that he's hypocritical, Say rather that he's apolitical. "Once the rockets are up, Who cares where they come down? That's not my department," Says Wernher von Braun.
