If you're here from an online school for the Four Freedoms Speech (starting at I suppose every realist...) that's at 6:18
Thank you so much! :)
marry me
Well shit glad I’m not the only one lol
you're a god
thx
This speech is nearly 82 years old and portions of it can be applied to the current way the world is heading.
It seems like we are heading towards communism.
I was thinking the same thing.
"We must especially beware of that small group of selfish men who would clip the wings of the American eagle in order to feather their own nests!"
Fun Fact: This video was posted 77 years after the speech was given.
Who the hell disliked this video? Its litteraly just a speech
@cyanghost109 Why the hell would a Trump supporter dislike a video about FDR talking about American security and unity. I think their more likely to like the video.
@cyanghost109 lol wut?
@cyanghost109 I was calling into question your position that "trump-tards will do anything to own the libs" Firstly it is my view that the libs do their own owning, mostly I just sit and laugh at them. Secondly, I would think that "trump-tards" are just people who I disagree with who hold their positions and beliefs that form more complex motivational hierarchies than merely wanting to own the libs. I would love it if you would expand on your position about the "trump-tards" having no lives and not being exciting and therefore disliking a video about F.D.R. (p.s. I'm not a racist, and I don't like trump)
Sadly, no such thing as "Just any Speech" anymore... Supposed to be no Protected Classes and No Protected Speech. But, "Hate Speech and Censorship" come in myriad forms.
@cyanghost109 WOW! Bigoted, Stereotyping, Assumption, Prejudice, Bias(es) and Fallacies.
Nice fitting them all in a few lines.
Our nation could so sorely use a president like this today!
No we need a president like JFK
Bernie 2020
You got one even better today
@Bernard de Fontaines 👊👊👊
@Bernard de Fontaines To have the audacity telling another American Citizen what they can and cannot say/type: That's VILE. Censorship is the Second most heinous act against the Founders and their Promises made.
"Hate Speech" = Censorship
Watching for school essay
Not perfect, but as Whiston Churchill said, better than the rest. That's why people around the world still sacrifice everything to live in the USA.
This sounds like he is giving this speech today in 2019. It's happening today in this speech somewhat.
the whole point of the last 80 years was to get rid of the new deal. thats just history lol. high taxes meant that instead the wealthy purchased influence. they created american identitarianism, (the nuclear family) and with that created a foundation to create a popular front style coalition of confederates, klansmen, and german bunders, along with the rest of the conservative movement that became ascendant in the late 70s due to the southern strategy created by Lee Atwater. you may have heard of barry goldwater and that hillary clinton was a goldwater girl. once the clintons took over the left, the 90s onward has been a bipartisan rape of the middle and working class
Oh god, you’re such a baby. These times don’t compare at all with what older generations had to go through.
You didn’t specify after you mentioned the nuclear family but the examples after imply it’s not beneficial to any other groups. The reason the nuclear family was pushed is because no matter your background, if you’re raised in a traditional sense, you are better off., statistically speaking. I understand not everyone has that, but why not make that the goal?
his speech is inspirational
Certainly this is no time for any of us to stop thinking about the social and economic problems which are the root cause of the social revolution which is today [ JAN 1941 ] a supreme factor in the world.
For there is nothing mysterious about the foundations of a healthy and strong democracy. The basic things expected by our people of their political and economic systems are simple. They are:
Equality of opportunity for youth and for others.
Jobs for those who can work.
Security for those who need it.
The ending of special privilege for the few.
The preservation of civil liberties for all.
The enjoyment of the fruits of scientific progress in a wider and constantly rising standard of living.
These are the simple, basic things that must never be lost sight of in the turmoil and unbelievable complexity of our modern world. The inner and abiding strength of our economic and political systems is dependent upon the degree to which they fulfill these expectations.
#FDR2020
Democracy is love of fellow human beings.
Pure Love. A pure leader!!!
“Clip the wings of the American eagle in order to feather their own nest.”
Sounds like an accurate description of Donald.
We are old school, but better than the rest.
Thought of a comet..being seen..how fast they travel..look at what this century has fell to..already..my daybreak..searching and looking and asking questions about frontier of freedom and world democracy. Some comets keep returning.. as inspiration..To hear this man's wife..unload her quiet and robust spirit, should make us humble..the projects and program's needed for American revolution of reconstruction and reunion..of such great possibilities..frontier..for all the people...we the people..son of Philadelphians....labor to save a nation . Or lose it..
28:55 for those reading from Lee A. Jacobus' "Approaching Great Ideas"
I was never aware of how the Four Freedoms speech tied in with Lend Lease speech and the presentation of the dangers of growing dictatorships. I cannot help wondering I the expansion of the great dictatorships of today Russia and China not primarily thru military force (not forgetting East Georgia and Armenia) match's them. An we have to battle Climate change, air and water pollution, the Islamic Calapathists, and the anti science activists.
PRC not militarily a threat? BRI isn't a Threat? 9-Dash Line isn't a Threat?
Anti-Science?
Are you forgetting Syria, Iraq, Libya, Vietnam etc?
A true leader of men
Eric Larkoms latest book is a big help in terms of informing one about the speech.
what is the title of the book? thank you
33:33 four freedoms
That is my fifth cousin Franklin, three times removed. I see the Republican form of government, enshrined in Article IV, Section 4, of our Constitution, under attack from democracies of which my cousin so blithely speaks.
Shoutout to alps kids watching dis
23:58 "let us say to the democracies..."
i dont wanna watch this
back in the days
Bernie talking about this very speech today!
Yes, and communism -_-
Hi
Japan when hit by your destruction Decisions you did not Allies
You are not an ally
I think it is ironic that his speech is named four freedoms. I think he was trying to put it for freedom! but they wouldn't allow it.
With the aid of time, evaluating the results, do we (Americans in the Greatest Republic the world has ever witnessed) understand the plastic terms used and the disaster this speech wrought?
What a crock, without FDR our country was drifting aimlessly... we live in a democracy you maga nut!
33:38
I fear that we have forgotten the folly of isolationism
Ya boi Leo was here

20:34 Franklin Delano Roosevelt calls for the need to produce more and ship more arms and equipment to allied countries engaged in battle where as John Fitzgerald Kennedy resented the need for arms and emphasized the importance for disarming and moving towards peace in his inauguration
FDR was writing in the midst of massive wars in Europe and Asia and doubted that the US could avoid them in the long run. JFK was speaking after 20 of hugely expensive Cold War at at a moment without any major hot wars going on. Kennedy could hope for peace without someone having to win a war first.
Context is needed!! FDR made this speech during the worst war mankind has ever seen, while JFK made it in a time where they were already spending more than needed for the last decade because of the cold war
He tells us about Four Freedoms: speech, religion, want and fear. An utopian society where if you say something that doesnt align with the global objective, you're pretty much die in an "education camp" .
Free will the doctrine that the conduct of human beings expresses personal choice determined by physical or devine forces. This is my own revised definition that what Webster's dictionary has.
Free world, the nations of the world that are not under totalitarian control or Influence. Thats right, so No New World Order! Each nation has it's own constitution. Lets respect and have the ability to argue those difference freely. Freedom of speech and fear cannot coexist without discomfort. Speech moves people to act or hide. At least theres a choice
Wow... that word salad
Unfortunately trump thinks he’s the best president who know words. He’s the self proclaimed genius that reads like a first grader. Hopefully trump will listen to this fine speech spoken by the honorable FDR.
Franklin D Roosevelt talked about freedom and democracy in this speech. He then gave all of Eastern Europe to Stalin and the USSR to be under the iron heel of Soviet Union oppression for the next 50 years and this was done in spite of Churchill's objections to this kind of stupid action. He managed to split the Korean Peninsula and that is an ongoing problem today. Had he not died when he did he would have gifted the Soviet Union with half of Japan even though they did not contribute anything to the Pacific front and the defeat of Japan. He talked about concentration camps and then threw Japanese Americans into concentration camps. We need no more people like him serving as president of the United States.
Pointe for the comment about the Soviet taking Japanese Territory!
👊👊
@Bernard de Fontaines Gotta give props to George F. Kennan and his Long-Telegram (1946) followed by his brilliant assessment and understanding of Russia and CCCP, creating The Containment Theory which served as our main IR and FP Approach towards the Soviets throughout the Cold War. Even piggy-backed on other Policies like Domino Theory and our Nuclear Posture Reviews.
Sry. I'm a 🤓. He's one of my favourite Political Figures and did do much for this Nation, across Administrations & Parties.
FDR was merely president of the United States. He was not a god, capable of preventing all misdeeds by Stalin, and other problems in the world.
@John Webster 100%
John Swallow He’s considered one of country’s greatest presidents
