    Imagine if in London during the Blitz there'd been a whole bunch of people going "I'LL TURN ON MY LIGHTS IF I FEEL LIKE IT" Imagine if once the war started in the US a bunch of Americans were all "WHO ARE YOU TO TELL ME HOW MUCH FLOUR AND SUGAR I CAN BUY"

        Actually that did happen in the US, Rose Wilder Lane (Laura Ingalls Wilder's daughter) was an anti-tax protester with Nazi apologist views who initially claimed the whole war effort was an excuse to take your freedom

        I wonder if they did, actually. And how much wartime censorship kept it from catching on.

        In the other direction, I was just reading about the start of WWI, and the intense, insane paranoia in Paris about anything with a vaguely German connection leading to mass vandalism and looting.

        Hell, there were ads for it: https://youtu.be/yExGqoZGuxA  I even remember one for when the war ended and people wanted to return to normal, fast, and the ad said “whoa, hold on! We still need material to keep things going. Keep at it.”

        I’m pretty sure that did happen. People got thrown in prison for it.

        In fact ISTR one of my grandmother’s friends telling me how her first job when she was 16 was patrolling during air raids, and one of the things she was watching for was improperly blacked out windows.

        Nah, they would ask how bad the Nazi occupation would be and would gladly cooperate with them. We are talking about people who think that killing millions is perfectly acceptable for a little comfort and is even desirable since the virus kills the poor and the sick.
