Ah he’s only suspended and a union member. I heard that the suspension will likely be short (3 days was the figure someone in the same union said on the other site). I’m sure we’ll hear all about it if he is actually fired.
Mad props to him for seeing his opportunity, realising it was once in a lifetime and grabbing it with both hands.
He wasnt just a fuckin open Nazi, Hitler practically wrote him a goddamn Love Letter in Mein Kampf.
Ford also financially supported the Nazi Party in its early days
Also received the highest medal and honors that could be bestowed to a foreigner, from Nazi Germany.
Then, in 1942, when such things started reflecting badly on him, he suddenly went “oh no no no, Thats not me, I hope this whole business ends with world peace and love amongst everyone”
It’s slightly more complicated than that. Still doesn’t make him look good but it’s more nuanced.
He was a Nazi and flagrant racist before Nazi was the unequivocally negative descriptor we think of it as today.
He thought Nazism was right for America the same way he thought square dancing would keep away the blacks and that the Jews would be undercut if he did car financing without banks.
He was awful and a patriot, so when Germany went to war with America he was unequivocally in favor of destroying the Germans.
He still agreed with them on everything else.
Ford are fash sympathizers, who could’ve guessed
