- hunterb123 5y agoI would warn you guys to not use fascist for everyone you disagree with or it's going to lose its meaning, but that ship has long sailed. If I were to pick the modern day fascist it would look more like those advocating for censorship and government control. Overall, the right is more libertarian than ever, the left seems to be getting more authoritarian.
- CamperBob2 5y agoAh, yes, the hallowed libertarian creed: "Pack the courts with theocrats so we can do what it takes to keep Those People from voting. And never mind all that free will stuff, there are babies being murdered!" Everything you see in these photographs can happen again, and can happen here. It's not even political, really -- note the quotes from FDR in the Dorothea Lange link someone posted.
- hunterb123 5y agoAh, yes, the person that ignores everything I said and goes on an irrelevant rant because I mentioned the word "libertarian". You're getting evangelical positions mixed up with libertarians btw.
- CamperBob2 5y agoDon't tell me, tell your fellow travelers in the GQP. You're the one who claimed that "The right is more libertarian than ever," despite what we can all see happening every day in the news. As for the evangelicals... man, that Goldwater fellow sure knew what he was talking about, didn't he?

- retrac 5y agoColour film is quite rare on the German side as they were far more resource-constrained than the Allies, and they reserved their limited film stocks mostly for commercial films. Still, there's some. And for similar reasons, colour photography during the war from the Soviets and Japanese is extremely rare. Even colour photography by the British, like here, is relatively uncommon compared to the enormous output of American photographers. America was the only place during most of the war where you could just walk into a shop and buy some decent colour film.
