Don't Be A Sucker - US War Department Education Film 1947
Don’t Be A Sucker is an educational film produced by the US War department in 1947, shortly after the end of WW2. It presents a quite cogent analysis of how fascists come to power, and how those who are taken in by the lies and false promises of fascists are nothing but suckers. It is eerily timely in 2025. In many ways, it shows how the cycle of history repeats itself, only this time, it’s happening here, and not in another country at another time. Only a sucker could fail to see the parallels.
