Humanity was on the verge of caving in to Hitler in 1940 . . .

Rating: 10/10 (11 December 2017)

. . . DARKEST HOUR deftly documents. England was rife with Fascist Gestapo Nazi Fellow Travelers such as Neville Chamberlain and Viscount Halifax, DARKEST HOUR recounts. Even King George VI--current monarch Liz the Second's Pops--sat on the fence, seriously considering whether to defect to Canada to avoid a firing squad A La Czar Nicholas. Were it not for a common secretary and a random collection of True Blue Loyal Patriotic Average Normal 99 Per Center Silent Majority Progressive Union Label "Little People" donating a transfusion of backbone to Winston Churchill in Civilization's DARKEST HOUR, the Corrupt "Conservative" Corporate Fat Cats would have embraced Hitler in a New York minute, and we'd all STILL be living under the "Third Reich." Except for the Jews, of course--cowards such as Chamberlain and Halifax would have been sure to round up the OTHER six million Sons of David who survived World War Two for Their Fuhrer. Gone, too, would be the Gays, the Gypsies, the Mentally Challenged, the Physically Infirm, the Poor, the People of Color, the Liberals, the Socialists, the Free-Thinkers, the Press--pretty much the same Hit List of Usual Suspects currently endangered by Red Commie KGB Chief Vlad "The Mad Russian" Putin, and his White House Sock Puppet, Don Juan Rump. The latter just announced this week that he's going to have Devil's Tower strip-mined by America's Big Coal Oligarchs. This is the U.S. National Monument that Rump's fellow serial sex offender, Richard Dreyfuss, was building out of mashed potatoes in the middle of Steven Spielberg's CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE THIRD KIND. (Rump evidently thinks that razing the Devil's Tower will squelch some of the evidence that he has the same Master as old Adolf: Satan!)
