In any case, we are not writing peer-reviewed academic journals here with supporting footnotes. Most reasonable people understand this is a backwater internet forum and would tolerate imprecise language from time to time. However, feel free to froth at mouth and nit-pick because if we have learned anything about you over the years, it's that you have to do you.
Oh, so now we're referring to Democrat
voters are we.
No longer are we speaking of the
Politician switch?
Interesting how it is evolving.
In the past you've indicated that the Democrat party platform now became the platform of the Republicans in the South.
You've referred over the years to the idea that the political ideology reversed itself in the South because the Democrat politicians changed their party affiliation to Republican.
Let's just get the facts straight.
Your Democrats have historically been the racists.
Your Democrat politicians filibustered the 1964 Civil Rights act.
More Republican politicians as a percentage of their overall makeup voted FOR the Civil Rights Act compared to the Democrat polticians in YOUR racist party.
We're talking about your politicians here. These are the people who matter and who make the laws.
Your Democrat politicians in the South created All the Jim Crow Laws.
Your Democrat politicians in the South created the "separate but equal" garbage that resulted in Segregation of the Schools, the businesses, the housing areas, the water fountains, the bathrooms, the areas on the buses, etc...
Your Democrat politicians interred the Japanese Americans in Concentration camps.
Your Democrat politicians created the Ku Klux Klan.
Your Democrat politicians supported the KKK.
Your Democrat President Woodrow Wilson re-segregated the Armed Forces of the United States.
Your Democrat President Woodrow Wilson was one of the biggest racist of any President.
Your Democrat President Lyndon Johnson was probably THE Biggest racist of any President.
Your Democrat President LBJ said this to 2 governors while On Air Force One, regarding if he signed the Civil Rights Act:
Democrat Lyndon Baines Johnson: "I'll have those N*****s voting Democrat for the next 200 years". (And you don't need to take my word about that, the Far LEFT Huffpost had an entire article about it): https://www.huffpost.com/entry/the-democratic-partys-two_b_933995
Your Democrat Politicians Seceeded from the Union of the United States, causing a Civil War in which nearly 700,000 American Men died.
REPUBLICANS fought AGAINST slavery, while
Your Democrats fought FOR slavery.
Now you expect the world to forget about all your party's sins against mankind.
Your party is the party who hates this nation and thinks that everyone needs to now pay for
their sins.
The sins of this nation ALL occurred under Democrats and by Democrats.
So don't try to pass off your bullshit now that this is some NEW Democrat party that
"changed right after the Civil War" as you so prevaricatingly stated.
And for now I'm done with this subject.
