lol @ judging 1950s/60s politicians by 2010s standards.
Yes, because opposing concentration camps is a new idea and we shouldn't condemn people pre-2010 for supporting them.

Citation needed. I'm aware Humphrey supported banning the American Communist Party briefly during the 1950s but that isn't exactly equivalent to throwing them into KZs.

Hubert Humphrey is a treacherous, gutless old ward-heeler who should be put in a goddamn bottle and sent out with the Japanese current.

Buhbuhbuhbut muh Civil Rights!
"Why can't you ing darkies understand this guy who championed your rights from the beginning is terrible because he doesn't agree with me on my pet issue?!"


Yes, my pet issue of not wanting to be sent to a concentration camp.
