We bled and died by the thousands to put the cabal into power all in the name of saving democracy. America the ultimate social justice warrior destroyed itself by fighting it's enemies wars.
If he did say that, I would think he was referring to the political/social aspect of communism, as an enemy, compared to the actual global military threat of the Nazis.
He said we defeated the wrong enemy. He said we’re going to have to fight these commies sooner or later might as well be now. He wanted to turn on the Soviets. It’s a great story if you look it up. Said the Germans were good disciplined soldiers….. they were brainwashed.
So how come the USA is supporting Nazis in Ukraine? Scratches head.
Conclusion: Hollywood did not manage to sway the policy-makers against NAZis.
It didn't work, because a lot of them ARE NAZis. The Hollywood stories are fantasy after all.
Also, I would watch movies about that other stuff. Stalin, especially, considering that he was fighting on the Allies (our) side. Also, he got rid of Trotsky the termite.
[fat chance in this environment, BTW. The West, and especially Hollywood, is crawling with Trotsky supporters]
Unfortunately Stalin's policy of shooting and imprisoning Nazis was undermined by Khrushchev, who released all the Gulag detainees including those SS troops from Ukraine (because the war was over). Arguably those people should have remained in the Gulags, because they murdered Poles, Jews, Gypsies etc. However, the existence of Gulags became a political hot potato in the fifties.
The fact that Zelensky is Jewish does not mean that the Ukrainian Army does not contain Nazis. That is just a cover. They did the same with the Russia, Russia, Russia investigation. They got an army of rabid Democrats to investigate Trump then appointed a Republican figurehead in Mueller to deflect criticism.
It didn't happen like that, of course. Zelensky played a president on the TV and "they" wanted an actor for the top job. A match made in heaven.
There were all kinds of new-Nazis in Ukraine and the idea was to incorporate the militant factions into the regular Ukrainian army so they would be under some control. The fact that Zelensky happens to be Jewish is just a propaganda bonus.
American Heros Channel is nearly all Nazi all the time. I cannot remember when I have seen anything on that channel other than Nazi documentaries.
I certainly have noticed.
I can see how you might stretch the "look bad for Chinese" Mao argument but what about Lenin and Stalin. They were white as snow, so prime white persecution fodder, but not a single show about how Stalin murdered his people at random. No documentaries on the programs Stalin had where there were quotas on killing the opposition and how his people would make it a competition on who killed the most.
Yes, it is POWER, not ideology, that poses the danger. Professor R.J. Rummel on the topic:
The more totalitarian and less democratic a regime the more democide, the more genocide, and the greater the annual rate of democide that it commits. That is, although the independent patterns of domestic democide, foreign democide, genocide, and the others, are not correlated, together they are accounted for by a regime's totalitarian power.24 Power is the means through which a regime can accomplish its goals or whims. When a regime's power is magnified through its forceful intervention in all aspects of society, including its control over religion, the economy, and even the family, then when conjoined with an absolutist ideology or religion, mass killing becomes a practical means of achieving its ends. Thus we have the megamurderers shown in Table 1, such as the totalitarian USSR, communist China, Nazi Germany, and Cambodia under the Khmer Rouge. And thus, when the regime finds for whatever reason that the continued existence of a social group is incompatible with its beliefs or goals, totalitarian power enables it to destroy that group. Genocide follows. On the other hand, democratic elites generally lack the power to, and democratic culture anyway opposes, the outright extermination of people or social groups for whatever reason.

Patton did say we went after the wrong enemy. And……. CUE RANDOM CAR ACCIDENT!

Funny you mention that. Was just thinking about it yesterday.
Did the Patton movie mention that the hood General felt the commies were the real enemy? Not the Germans?
Or Pol Pot

I noticed that stuff when I was ten years old.
Too much of too many industries rely on China to break record profits, so naturally they won't ever say anything "wrong" about them.
Especially with the pushback here at home from the intellectual drones who will call it racism
This is an excellent point.

Nothing on that horror show.
The only one I can the think of that is remotely anti Mao is The Sand Pebbles.

I’ve been saying that for years. The closest they came was the TV series The Americans. Even then, they made the Soviet infiltrators sympathetic.
So youre saying that the Ukraine nazis are the good guys?
I see a lot of Pol Pot in what's going on, now, too, just being done at frog-boiling speeds.
Plenty of movies against all that.
You know what there arent any movies of?
What happened between the fall of the roman empire and the magna carta.
Where are all the movies for that? Tbat arent complete fiction
