+1 ... it takes a special kind of stupid to climb a wall when you have steps 20 feet away
Was that the dead deplorable?
Sure, if by "over time" you mean 70 years ago when voters the South started switching to the Republican Party as a response to civil rights orders by Democrat presidents.
The party history lessons are tiresome. Republicans are the party that attracts racists now, as Democrats were 100 years ago. We're not voting for GOP and Dem candidates 100 years ago, so if you're still a Republican because it's the "Party of Lincoln" you're a ing idiot.
^ Imagine when this guy realizes not only white people are racist...
America education system, folks
Nixon famously courted the southern white Democrats in the 1960s and 70s along with John Ashcroft who is the brainchild. it should be noted that Ashcroft was also the one with the idea for the war on drugs stating on tape that it would disproportionately impact minority communities which would help them politically.
the George Wallace's and Strom thurmond's went over to the Republican party as a result of this and what is known as the southern migration. they felt the need to do so because the voting's rights act that were passed in the 1960s allowed minority caucuses to take over local state and federal positions in the Democratic party pushing them out. They were also incense to because it was Lyndon Johnson who spearheaded all of these laws that were disenfranchising them.
Really though the GOP gave up any moral claim on race issues in 1875 when they traded power for the end of reconstruction. That was when all of the new voting suppression laws and segregation was put in and shortly after a bunch of Confederate statues that we are now still arguing about.
It sucks how lack of critical thinking particularly and determining source veracity is lacking and taking advantage of by politicals.
in fairness most history books gloss over the time period between reconstruction and world war I. They mentioned voting rights Acts of the 1960s but not really the political ramifications of them.
Also, the period from 1917-1930. Unparalleled racist terrors in the USA.
Yep. The period between reconstruction and the New Deal was an ugly time for America. Racism, massive poverty, inequiality, etc. but your usual public education doesn’t touch this era.
Unfortunately the textbook industry is beholden to local politics and there are too many people still intent on whitewashing everything outside of us winning wars since reconstruction.
all you hear about is the roaring 20's and great depression, dust bowl, etc
Right, and the “roaring 20s” is a stupid label imo. It was very similar to the 2000s imo, you had religious zealots running the country, rampant growth in wealth inequality, and a giant asset bubble people confused with prosperity. History books depict it as a great time for the country when it wasn’t at all.
Ty for the name calling. I must have struck a nerve with all the demosheep.
You just called us a name. We struck a nerve with you.
I love how high school history books would paint Upton Sinclair's The Jungle as just a book about how disgusting meat packing plants were, when that was only a couple of chapters and the book was really a call to Communist revolution. I remember one chapter was about banks making home loans to people who couldn't afford them, collecting a few months worth of payments, then evicting the first time they missed a payment and then selling them to the next sucker as brand new. Or another chapter on how they put formaldehyde in milk. Another on crooked plant owners making their workers go vote for the owner's preferred candidate. The book was on the moral rot of capitalist America, but can't tell that in history books that always want to paint this nation as having a steady march towards greatness.
LOL low information re
MAGA will be firing the GOP clowns like Cornyn, Romney, and Lindsey!
