In the interests of comity perhaps you could explain to this history-challenged person how and why the international Left supported Hitler's actions until Hitler turned on Stalin.
Message 6110145
The Left followed Soviet foreign policy and part of that was to excoriate FDR as a "warmonger" when he tried to build support against Hitler and for aiding GB.

Of course that all changed when Hitler turned on Russia - then the Left screamed that FDR was never doing enough to help the Allies and especially Stalin.

If I recall correctly, that was even played out in The Way We Were. Perhaps the "cheers" man can understand it on that level.

My father had the same, I believe, unenlightened view regarding homosexuals until a few out gays started working closely with him at his hospital. Once he got to know them on a one-to-one basis, he completely changed his views on homosexuality. He stopped viewing it as a psychological disease, as he was taught in medical school. That was in his late 50s. So it's not too late for you either, joan. :-)
