It wasn't just them. I mean, the Christian friends, mostly Catholic father, Collagen as a Catholic priest, the Klan is very, very anti Catholic. Well, you had a violent fascist plot to overthrow the US government right after the 1940 election as well. You also had the silver shirt movement, which was kind of a middle class movement started by this successful Hollywood screenwriter. They were acquitted.
