Oh, horse ****. That's pure revisionist fantasy. Stupid revisionist
fantasy,
at that, given the indisputable FACTS.
Only a relatively few hard headed idiots, many of them staunchly
isolationist American Republidolts with Nazi sympathies, didn't know
Hitler
was a madman and a menace LONG before 1939.
And how, yo might ask, did these people know while the Republidolts in the
US were blind? What subtle clues tipped them all off?
Well, Hitler was making speeches denouncing Jews by 1921.
Mein Kampf was published in 1925, leaving no doubt that Hitler was a
madman.
Throughout the 1920's Hitler spoke out continuously against the Jews and
often called for eliminating Jews entirely.
Hitler burned the Reichstag in 1933.
He publicly defied the Treaty of Versailles in 1934, an action immediately
condemned by the League of Nations.
In 1936 he re-occupied the Rhineland and sent troops to Spain to fight for
the fascists.
Also in 1936,he formed the Axis by signing a treaty with Fascist Italy.
In 1937 Hitler began negotiating the Tripartite Treaty, bringing Japan
into
the Axis.
1938 brought the horrors of Crystalnacht.
Hitler began systematically murdering hundreds of thousands of Germans in
early 1939 with Action T4.
All of this, and much more, made it obvious to anyone with 2 brain cells
to
rub together that Hitler was a menace to the entire world. It took a
special
kind of stupidity - practiced artfully the isolationist Republidolts in
Congress - to ignore decades of continual warnings.
Bragging that someone realized Hitler was a bad guy AFTER he invaded
Poland
is much like bragging about bragging about how you recognized it was a 2 x
4
even before it hit your head, but felt it wiser not to duck.
The main problem you conservadolt idiots have is you don't have the
slightest ****ing clue about that which you bleat. Your knowledge of
history
- and the world in general - is limited to the asinine bull**** from
partisan shouters that you geniuses lap up like puppies on puke.
The truly amazing thing is you idiot seem to honestly believe that
claiming
ignorance somehow makes you look less clueless. Um, no. It only confirms
that you just don't get it.
The simple fact is you idiots *could* know better. The information is
available. You just don't bother to look.
For intentional ignorance there's a word, don't you see. That good word is
stupidity.

ABSTRACT:
....the authors found that participants scoring in the bottom quartile
on tests of humor, grammar, and logic grossly overestimated their test
performance and ability. Although their test scores put them in the
12th percentile, they estimated themselves to be in the 62nd.
