www.youtube.com/watch?v=a3Eg8F3rap4&search=charlie%20chaplin I think hes got the right idea on what the world should be, although peace and unity have never worked I still believe in it. This is the movie that the clip is taken from. imdb.com/title/tt0032553/ |

“Due away with National barriers”. Chaplin was a great artist and idealist. Keep in mind Chaplin is speaking within the context of the events of that time period. Artists tantalize the mind and sometimes inspire the heart. Unfortunately, idealism has little usefulness when an enemy runs a blade across your neck. Sometimes the guts of your enemies must be ground by the boots of cruel men, lest your way of life cease to exist. |

Chaplin fncked up when he was diddling a 14 year old and then had to marry her... Peoples take on child molestors back then was not any less than today. Wiki him for the story!! YIKES - I mean Woody Allen at least was hitting on someone at 18 and up! BIGGER_HAMMER

 Chaplin was a fool and a communist… that is the kind of drivel you would expect from a 16 year old,. Sounda good until you apply some actual thought and historical perspective to the subject. |
