Description
A colorization of the corrupt and imperialistic 25th president, William McKinley. He was an extremely corrupt and tyrannical president for many reasons, including annexing Cuba, Hawaii, and even the Philippines. He was a warmonger born in my home state of Ohio. Basically, after McKinley defeated the Spanish in Cuba, he essentially annexed it, leaving it under the control of the army instead of granting the independence he promised.

After that, McKinley sent troops to Hawaii in order to assist in the illegal overthrow of the Hawaiian government, allowing him to unlawfully annex Hawaii which, unlike Cuba, remains a US territory to this day. McKinley's most horrific act is the invasion of the Philippines which, like Cuba, were under Spanish rule.
Due to McKinley's unhealthy obsession with making America a leading player on the world stage, he ordered troops to attack the Philippines and take it away from Spain in order to make it a US territory. In the initial takeover, 200,000 Filipino civilians were unfortunately killed by US troops under the direction of Jacob H. Smith, and McKinley horrifically ordered the establishment of Concentration Camps and the horrific destruction of crops when the Filipinos resisted.

He also displayed cultural bigotry towards the Filipinos, as he imposed the assimilation of the Philippines into US culture, meaning that local culture was repressed in favour of the US. After assisting in the defeat of the Boxer Rebellion in China, McKinley and the other leaders responsible for the Boxer's defeat imposed legislation allowing suspected rebels to be executed without trial.

He abused his power, and was a warmonger. He possibly blew up the USS Maine which was at Cuba, so that he could declare war on Spain and subsequently invade Cuba. He committed several war crimes, and crimes against humanity. He also committed the crime of Extrajudicial Execution. For all of this, he should have been impeached and convicted for his crimes.

I do both hate and like this guy, so..yeah.
