Fricking traitor. Personally I think we should deal with it the same way we used to, string him up.

Roy Cohn smeared the army (the one that fought commies) because they wouldn't let the boytoy he was buggering dodge the draft. (Assuming he wasn't actually working for the communists Manchurian Candidate-style.) Are rightoids such strags now that he's been rehabilitated and is some kind of a hero?

I honestly know nothing about him outside :marseytouchgrass: of the fact that he pushed for the execution :marseydeathsentence: of those two traitors, that he was gay, controversial, and mentored trump

Literally don't know anything :marseycoleporter: else

I'm not a rightoid, it just seems like it because I'm uneducated on the topic

OMG you missed the real drama. The big moment in his life is that he was the central figure in the McCarthy Hearings. McCarthy had gone fully insane, was probably popping bennies or something because he was legit insane. He starts saying that the US Army is run by commies and implying Eisenhower is one too. He has his lawyer Roy Cohn go to the hearings and present his position.

Only problem is that the Army is on to him and his subversion. Cohn was an open and notorious homosexual. This wouldn't totally destroy you even in the 1950s, but he had to go way overboard with it. When his gay lover G. David Schine was drafted in 1953 he repeatedly tried to pressure the Army to give him special treatment and keep that sweet lil' bussy close to home where he could frick it.

So the hearings start and they're on live TV and radio around the country. (This is before the TikTok era when people actually had an attention span longer than 90 seconds.) The Army's lawyers tear him apart, including making smug remarks about him being a queer. This was not because he was the tragic victim of the "lavender scare" and homophobia. Everyone was turning against McCarthy already for a number of reasons. Everyone hated commies but he had lost all credibility. And now he sends out this fairy who is trying to help his fellow fairy dodge the draft. This in a country where literally everyone had a father/brother/son who had just fought in the war. ("The war." We still called it that when I was a kid because half the people in your family had been in it.)

The gay thing made it more salacious and more memorable (apparently not to you tho :marseysmughipskorean:) but that was the cherry on the top, not what it was really about.

It wasn't memorable to me because I didn't study :marseyreading: American :marseyhealthy: history :marseypharaohcat: in school

But Roy Cohn seems like a fun dude I'll definitely look into it

If I could educate 100 people about Roy Cohn getting called a fairy by the US Army I would die a happy man.
