Henry Ford was always terrible, he just paid for a lot of good press

It's why people don't really know that he disowned his son for standing for Worker's Rights and let him die from cancer without giving it a second thought

Henry Ford was so racist that he was admired by Hitler. Like, Hitler actually had a portrait of Ford hanging in his office and even gave him a medal for racism.

Henry Ford is literally the person who gave Hitler a copy of "Protocols of the Elders of Zion"

Man was awarded a fucking medal by Hitler
