Entry 20 (August 17, 1918)

WHAT HAPPENED TO THE FIRST AMENDMENT WHEN I WAS SENT TO WAR???? I was put into prison for allegedly being a “communist.” What even is communism? I found out, by asking other inmates, that apparently, while I was at war, some guy named Lenin threw a revolution in Russia (originally a labor strike), and established a communist state, and made peace with Germany. That explains why there was a sea of enemy soldiers: because they are not fighting Russia anymore! I still do now know what communism is, but I think they put me in jail for advocating for peace! Preposterous. Some of the other inmates are also put in here for advocating peace, and we have to spend a time that lasts “as long as necessary” next to a murderer! For God’s sake, what is going on in America? I thought they held me in honor and gave me a medal, not abhor me for advocating for peace!

The tale has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.

One thing to point out, the belly timber here is somehow at least ten times better war rations. I do not get why the food they give to criminals is better than the food they give to people fighting for the country.

They said that they were “stretching it” by letting me write in my journal while in prison, as long as I do not publish my journal so that I could not “influence other people to take up the red torch.”
