Chapter 98: Bai Fei Bai (Thursday)
Subtitle of this chapter: The author who writes historical novels does not carry private goods, so what is the difference between it and salted fish?
"Hey, it's more than ten minutes late, why haven't Professor Chandler come yet?"
"Yes, he has always been the most punctual. Anyway, I didn't see him late or leave early in his class. Once I saw him pinching a stopwatch to clock, and he is worthy of being a German."
"Hey, just because he is Germanic, I can't come today!"
"Why?"
"You haven't heard that the case of his son being a German spy was held today, and he went back to Pennsylvania to appear in court."
"Professor Chandler's son is a German spy?! Is it true?! I heard that his son was an American officer before."
"Who knows. His son is indeed a professional officer who graduated from West Point. Mr. Chandler, a young man, was almost blind by the poisonous gas bombs of the Germans on the French front, and left serious sequelae. Therefore, he was honored to retire after being promoted to major."
"After returning home the previous year, he became a reporter for the Harrisburg Free Press. But I don't know if he was terrified by poisonous gas. Not only did he publicly oppose the Versailles Contract, he also often published articles saying that the United States should join forces, that the United States should fully support Irish independence, that the French are teammates of pigs, that the cunning British go back, and that the like." (Author's note: Harrisburg is the capital of Pennsylvania.)
"Isn't this the patriotic group targeting him, so he was caught as a German spy."
After President Wilson declared war on the Allies on April 6, 1917, countless "super patriots" emerged in our Great America. These great naval enthusiasts, compulsory military service believers, alcohol ban supporters, opposing tobacco, opposing evolutionists, ascetics among the Puritans, supporting speech examiners, anti-black, anti-Semitism and anti-China racists... all wrapped themselves in a patriot cloak made of star and stripe flags, and also described their enemies as lackeys of Lenin and William II.
These patriots organized hundreds of "patriotic groups" of all sizes, and Professor Adams joined the 3KKK party. Of course, the creeds of these guys are varied, but their attitudes towards traitors and radicals are quite consistent, that is, s.o.s, ship-or-shooting, exile or shooting.
In order to combat the anti-war forces at home, the Wilson administration pushed Congress to pass the espionage-act and sedition-act in 1917 and 1918 to suppress anti-British, pro-Germany and anti-war voices. The veteran, who is considered a war hero, ran into a straight face after returning home.
Our Master Yuan was really sighing after hearing this gossip. The corporal with a beard almost became blind by a poisonous gas bomb, but later became the head of state. However, the major Chandler, the youngest major, did not leave any waves in history. It can only be said that his fate is different for his fellow humans.
However, in his opinion, Major Chandler's chance of being imprisoned was not high, because the political atmosphere at these two points in November 1920 and the United States in November 1918 were completely different...
At this moment, Professor Klein, who had just distributed flyers at the door, hurried in, holding a stack of unpublished flyers in his hand, followed by his college students who were studying for a bachelor's degree in the Department of Economics.
"Gentlemen, Professor Chandler has something to ask for leave today, so I'll take the place to class."
The Jewish professor, who is very Jewish, walked up to the podium and said in a slightly sharp voice.
The so-called Jewish characteristics are actually the characteristics of the West Asian Semitic race, including black curly hair, long face, hooked nose, deep eye sockets and shorter peoples compared to Western European nations.
From the genetic level, they and their future enemies of life and death really belong to the Semites. What’s fun is that the people of the world call the Jews in the Semitic race to heaven as the smartest nation, and they also say that another part of this nation is fucked only by the sand... Well, sheep-herder.
However, because the Jews have been wandering in Europe for two thousand years, the result of a large number of mixed blood has gradually made some Jews look similar to the local ethnic group, and their racial characteristics are no longer so obvious. In order to confirm the identity of white people who are suspected of Jews, the group of people with beards have to check their foreskin. It has to be said that before the appearance of antibiotics, such as a minor surgery to remove the foreskin was also extremely risky. If the hygiene habits of medieval Europeans were also circumcised... the picture must be very beautiful!
However, Eastern Europe discrimination against Jews is more serious than that of Western Europe, so there is less phenomenon of intermarriage, which also makes the Jews there look more "true", which is Professor Klein's appearance.
He said loudly: "Since it is political economy, the content of today's course is this election. I admit that I support the Democratic Party..."
Like a hundred years later, most American minorities in 1920 also supported the Democratic Party. However, unlike a hundred years later, the "minorities" here have nothing to do with the black and yellow races. In fact, they are also whites, or rather, Caucasian races.
What? Some people say that Article 15 of the US Constitution Amendment in 1870 grants black people the right to vote... Please, can those niggers understand what elections are? Ge Sun either came out of the west.
In order not to let them discredit civilized democratic elections, American states, especially southern states, have set extremely strict prerequisites for voter registration, and have deprived African Americans of their right to vote in disguise.
Black people are treated like this, let alone local Indians and immigrants from all ethnic groups in Asia. In fact, because of the existence of the Chinese Exclusion Act, it is almost impossible for yellow people to become naturalized in the United States.
Of course, white people are different. The real formation of the melting pot of the United States requires a large-scale war in which the whole nation participates, at least a sense of participation.
That's right, it's World War II! World War I was actually interrupted by the Spanish flu in 1918, so for Great America, which joined the war in 1917, this war was too short and not exciting enough...well, fierce.
Only the forging of black iron and the watering of red blood can turn the "imagined community" into a real community.
In 1920, the minority in the United States referred to all non-wasp and German-Dutch white races, the Irish Celtics, the Latin people of France (southern) Italy, the Slavs of Eastern European countries... Of course, there were Jews. The Republicans looked down on them, so the Democrats joined them to keep warm.
The ethnic issue involves religious issues. Ireland, France and Italy immigrants basically believe in Catholicism, and the Slavs are naturally Orthodox, and they can't pee in the same pot as the Puritans of Wasp Calvinism. This makes the Democrats more open and tolerant towards religion. Of course, no matter how open and tolerant this era is, they will not tolerate atheism.
This naturally changed the factional composition within the Democratic Party. Later, the Democratic Party produced the first and only Irish Catholic in American history, the fourth was assassinated, and the nth was unable to control the leader, jfk.
ps. In fact, before I published the article today, I thought about it for a long time, but finally decided to delete all the contents of more than a thousand words of death.
