Just heard about him and read about him now.

Wikipedia.

Some group wanted him to be a fascist dictator here?

Turned anti war after he retired, it seems.

Said “War is a Racket”

To some extent, yeah, there’s money to be made in war, sometimes a LOT.

Doesn’t mean most of them don’t have to be fought anyway.

But I’m so far out of my league on this topic i’m bowing out :) and leaving it to better minds like yours, with experience.

Smedley Butler was also a kook.
