The Man Who Murdered McKinley: Leon Czolgosz

[@jasonfaber1463]

Back in 1992, I had a 96 year old female neighbor and I asked her if she remembered President McKinley? She said she did and even remembered the man who assassinated him. She gave me his name.

[@Juiceman-fz6pm]

Back when kids read the real newspaper and books. I bet, I would have enjoyed talking to your neighbor about her younger days and history. Makes me miss my grandparents.

The extreme division of the elite wealthy versus the majority poor is still a problem after 118 years.

[@frederickrapp5396]

The problem of rich and poor is still a huge problem today, and shows no sign of changing.

[@squirmtastic]

It's an impossible problem to solve, I think. There's too many people in the world for the average person to have any say in the government, so only rich people do. In every single society ever, there has been the rich and the poor, with the rich holding power and poor getting worked to death. Even communism has had the same problem, despite the ideals of the system. Basically, to have a society means someone always gets the short end of the stick, which is fucked up. I wish I could put faith in certain people to not be greedy and run the country properly, but it'll never happen. I guess anarchy is the only way for it to not be this way, but that has it's own problems. Even that wouldnt work unless an idealized version of anarchy was implemented. Humans literally aren't.... evolved? enough to be able to overcome these issues. And it sucks, dude.

It is because, in today’s time, we’ve had an unexpected court decision that reshaped our Constitution-meant exclusively for the people-to favor corporations. This change allows corporations to donate millions of dollars to political parties, overshadowing the interests of the people.

It's interesting because the conditions have returned to the situation described in the documentary.

n 1896 Garrett Hobart was President William McKinley's VP. Teddy Roosevelt wanted to be the 1900 VP candidate. Hobart refused to step aside then died in November 1899, age 55. TR and McKinley were elected November, 1900. McKinley was assassinated September, 1901 and TR became president. McKinley's campaign manager, Senator Mark Hanna, wanted to challenge TR in GOP presidential primaries in 1904. Hanna died February, 1904. TR is re-elected in November, 1904.

McKinley was friendly with the Tsar, and when Strauss came out with the idea to build a railroad connecting Alaska and Russia in 1892, which would open up international trade, the socialist anarchists (such as Emma Goldman et al), backed by wealthy socialists who hated the Tsar, had McKinley murdered. Russia was seen as competition by the socialists, and that finally led to the revolution in 1917, 16 years after McKinley was shot. Some within the US made sure that Trotsky made his way from New York to Russia, and some in Germany made sure that Lenin made his way to Russia from Switzerland. Others sent $1 million to the cause, via a fake Red Cross mission to Russia, which was never needed or wanted. It was wealthy socialists, within the US and in Europe, who made sure that Communism succeeded in Russia. After 1917, several large US industries built factories in Russia, and they did that during the Great Depression. Ford built the GAZ plant, which was larger than any automotive plant in the US, steel mills were built by US manufacturers, and GE invested heavily in the Soviet Union, as did Occidental Petroleum. The communist elite of the Soviet Union were crony capitalists. That is the truth that has been hidden away for many years.

[@PIANOPHUNGUY]

Didn't many companies move to China? The capitalists will sell rope to the Communists so they can hang us. Bernie Sanders' parents came from Poland as well. You wonder. Socialism (communism lite) is all over eastern Europe.

craxd1 • I thank you for that very relevant piece of information. Now i know why 4 eye elitist commie Roosebelt stuck his nose in Cuba. At the time of the Spain vs Cuba War. The War had already been won by the cubans all by themselves. Im almost finished with this clustef 'ck puzzle. What's the real reason Cuba slowly but surely. Turned communist. Which really started in 1952. With half black " mulato " ex sargeant and traitor to his own people F. Batista. Who was backed by the US State Dept. To carry out a Coup against the cuban's livelyhoods and their civil freedoms. Eventually leading to butcher communist Castro to come out of nowhere. Who was known in the University as a smelly uncleansed bastard child. The CIA found their perfect scumbag prospect. Like they found Lee Harvey Oswald. Another loser anti socialite. Castro the " bastard child scumbag saviour ".Fighting on behalf of the cuban's resentment against Batista. Playing his acting role to the " T ". The saving " Robinhood " of the Sierra Maestra. The commie weasel. Who just happened to be there at the exact moment for saving the Cuban republic. Who was really planted by the CIA. Which really means Catholic Inteligence Agency. The political strong arm of the Vatican. That are all communists. The communist Vatican and butcher commie Castro. Made a pact agreement between each other. Somewhere in 1947 or 48. To ley the butcher stay in power inside Cuba. Until this particular pope Francis. Ever decides to visit the butcher. Then after that circus. Castro would decide If he wanted to give his power to his f 'g brother Raúl.

If he was the son of immigrants, then I wonder how well they would have spoken English, even after they got here. They might have only spoken their native tongue like it was in a lot of immigrant homes, so maybe he could have picked up on an accent from them.

History is fascinating! Around this time was the Industrial Revolution where citizens largely transitioned from working on their family farms to make ends meet, to working in factories with horrible work conditions and horrifying health concerns. These jobs mist have been nightmarish considering the high risk of serious injury and desth on the job at the time. Then about a decade later they changed the Federal Reserve . Interesting times indeed.
