It’s absolutely acceptable to be happy that an awful human being is dead. Just because you die doesn’t somehow absolve you from being an asshole. Just because you did something good in your life doesn’t make up for the unforgivably bad things you did.
Fuck you.
“........where users wonder if his antisemitism was strong enough to outweigh his crimes of, say, providing jobs to African Americans”
When you're Hitler's inspiration in anti-Semitism, which resulted in the Holocaust,I think in this case we can say yeah, the world is better off without him. In some cases, you're probably right. When hitler gives you a shout-out in mein Kampf, we can make an exception.
The only thing i would change with what you wrote is everything.
Go fuck yourself.
That is absolutely false. He was a powerful person who used his resources to promote a racist agenda.
Henry Ford was a man with significant power in the US who propagated and instigated anti-Semitic propaganda. Worse, he did this during a time leading up to the height of the depression, when anti-semitism(immigration) sentiment was peaking. Sound familiar?
At the end of the day, he was just another person with an opinion. Also someone who formed the modern day middle class.
Tell that to the racists who are scared to death of being ‘replaced’ and want to (and in one case last year actually did) kill Jewish people to stop it.
Actually a huge amount of people DID agree with him!
So it's the author's view he was a racists shitbag? Not, I don't know, fact verifiable through his own literature?
This isn’t the media... it’s a blog. No different than Facebutt.
No, he was not “....just another person with an opinion.”! First, promoting racism and hate is not just voicing an opinion! Second, coming from someone who was as admired and had as large a pulpit as Ford gave it a degree of legitimacy. Finally, coming as it did at a time when Jews were being mercilessly persecuted…
I still fail to see why you’d hide their name? Bigots and racists deserve shame and derision.
Never forget.
If they do just ask them what the seceding states wanted the right to do. Then stand back and watch them turn inside out to avoid the word “slavery”.
Prince was a guest on The Electric Lady in 2013, he was working with her on this album, it’s a long way from that Kid Rock song or whatever. He worked with her. Lots. He was partially responsible for finding and nurturing her career.
