Elizabeth Woodville and her daughters being harassed by “repeated intercessions and dire threats” to leave sanctuary and submit to Richard III should be talked about a lot more than it is, tbh.

It's never been more apparent that the US isn't a united country as much as it is a bunch of small individual governments in a trench coat waving guns around to keep other countries away.

And also waving guns at each other.

And also arguing about which direction they're going.

And also arguing over whether they even need the trench coat anymore.

“Japs Just ‘Tin Soldiers’ Declares Chinatown Sage,” Toronto Star. February 27, 1933. Page 1. --- Adds "The Boys" Would Sooner Eat Them Than Rice --- ARE GETTING MAD ---- By ARCHIBALD LAMPMAN If you think Japan has anybody intimidated, just take a brief canter up Elizabeth St., Toronto's Chinatown.

It had been nearly a year since we last sat around the stove in Chen Tew's store with some of the local boys and settled eastern questions one right after the other with no effort at all. And, as the Japanese now seemed to be settling into a nice brisk stride in Jehol, we called again to-day. 

"How are the boys feeling about?" we opened, coming to the point. "They're mad, all right," he says. "Before this there used to be a lot factions in Chinatown - now they're altogether. They'd rather eat Japanese than eat rice."
