Do you think the united states would have risked losing world war i had it not passed the espionage and sedition acts and taken other steps to suppress dissent?

The United States would have definitely risked losing World War 1 if it had not passed the Espionage and Sedition Acts to suppress the emotions and dissent of the people because the enemy nations were on the rise and passing this Act meant the abolition of traitors and enemies within the nation supporting Alien enemies (enemies related within the German and other similarities)

Explanation:

By World War 1 it was difficult to separate the issues of radicalism, labor, Socialism. The Federal government viewed these as menaces.The Sedition provided penalties for people who published, wrote or published anything false and scandalous against the Government of the United States.The Naturalization Act required people to be resident for 14 years before acquiring citizenship.America won the War by knowing how to deal with foreigners and the immigrants that came to its jurisdiction.The United States declared war on Germany on April 6th 1917, most of the Americans during that time were second-generation immigrants born of German descent and eventually these people fell under suspicion of being disloyal.Hence due to circumstances like this, The Espionage and Sedition Acts was passed.
