Actor and director Charlie Chaplin was one of the few public figures in the United States who sincerely and actively advocated for the help of the USSR and the opening of the Second Front during the war. Because of his sympathies for the USSR and the struggle for social justice, Chaplin was persecuted in the United States, fabricated lawsuits, a campaign of black PR in the media, etc., which eventually forced him to leave the country.⠀"I do not know what communism is, but if it creates people like those who are fighting on the Russian front, we must respect it. It's time to drop all slander, because they give their life and blood so that we can live. We should give not only our money, but also all the spiritual capacity for friendship that we possess to help them." (Charles Chaplin, 1942) #NoiseCash
