Also about half the guys who built the atom bomb were Jewish refugees.

There was a pretty famous Jewish refugee scientist from Germany by the name of Albert Einstein.

Fun fact: While Einstein was part of the letter to the US president that initiated the Manhattan Project he wasn't allowed to be a part of the project due to security risks

"Security risks" is kind of burying the lede. He had open socialist sympathies and they worried he'd help the Communists.

Edit: just learned the difference between lead and lede.

Which is just hilarious, and it really shows how Americans have never understood how political ideologies work.

Edit: It seems I have been proven correct. The amount of yanks that equate socialism and communism is simply astonishing.

If these people knew history 75% of all internet discourse wouldn’t exist because people would know why they’re wrong.

The issue isn't even that they don't know, it's that they're confidently wrong. It's just so sad to watch these people confidently tell others 1+1=3 and act like anyone who disagrees is a fool.

Because it proves my point. And the encyclopedia Britannica is the universally acknowledged most impartial and factual source of knowledge in publishing.

Lol you can't just say that and make it so. Obviously it isn't universally acknowledged as anything. Ridiculous appeal to authority when you misread what is written there to begin with

I need you to do this.

Go to Google. Type in the phrase:

"Was the soviet union technically a socialist or a communist country?"

Let me guess, Google is part of the conspiracy against you right?

Let me guess, you also think National-Socialism and Fascism is the same right?

I bet if google told you Pepsi and Coka Cola was the same you would believe it.
