"It's like writing history with lightning."
He's right: it's like writing history with two lightning bolts placed directly beside one another.

It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

Wilson was long rumored to have been in the Klan while he was governor of New Jersey, or at least having attended rallies.
He absolutely fucked up the US joining the League of Nations and giving it legitimacy. The LoN's inability to deal with Nazi Germany was the result. To be fair, the LoN was too liberal of an institution for it to stop fascism. Even if the US backed it from the get go, it would have flopped around like it did during the Spanish Civil War.
Anywho I hate Wilson and how he is sometimes counted as being one of America's greatest presidents. Even by lib standards, he was a fuck.
