Joe Biden praises segregationist Democrats (who were the only party to be segregationist) and the left wing media refers to them as Republicans. Meanwhile, the Republican Party, which was formed to end slavery, and did in fact end slavery, gets lie after lie after lie from the democrat media.

Are you suggesting Republicans are now the racist party because we don't consider race/sex/gender to be the only thing that matters in life?

Why do things have to be so complicated these days. It seems that humans online cannot even speak to each other anymore.
 
I honestly do not understand why we cannot discuss things anymore.
 
Media lies for dems all day everyday.....FAKE NEWS is a real :kissass

I assume that he is suggesting that now it is Southern republicans and not Southern Democrats who proudly parade with the confederate flag. Times change...indeed.

You know what I really miss, man? Effing lawn darts. Some called them 'Jarts'.

They were fun for days.

Nope. I'm suggesting it's the racist party because it has a lot of racists.
 
This is breaking news? I've been whacked for a lot less.

Nope. You're the racist party for a couple of reasons, but those ain't it.

First, it's because the Republican party has been using the racist Southern Strategy for over 1/2 a century. That has had the expected result of bringing together virtually all the racists under the Republican banner.

Second, you're the racist party because you support Trump, a blatant racist. He was the leader of the racist Birther Movement, attacking a sitting POTUS, calling him UnAmerican for no other reason than he had black skin.

If you're gonna use racist strategies, and support blatant racists, you're going to be know as the racist party. WTF else did you expect?

They just can't seem to grasp that concept. I suppose that's why Trump loves them so much.

Well, for me, it was being trash-talked by talking heads and Michael Savage clones from 1979 to 2000. That's when I stopped bothering to actually discuss things. Limbaugh, Savage, Coulter, etc...And their fans.

The right wanted the divide, they get the divide.

Currently white supremacists support trump and the republicans. Hardly sounds like the party that ended slavery huh? By the way, which party elected a black president? Oh yeah the Dems. Which black nominee did the GOP select as their primary winner? Oh yeah, NONE. Do the math, it’s you and your party that support racism and white supremacy.

Are you aware that democratic segregationists of the South became Republicans. Now why would they do that?

Racists seem to love your party, like them "proud boys" and all them fellas with confederate flags at Trump rallys.

History lesson.

The Democrat party of today traces its roots to the Democrat-Republican party, which loosely called itself also the Republican party. Not to be confused with the current Republican party of today. It eventually became the Democrat party, or DNC, of today. And yes, the DNC DID advocate slavery at once point and during the Civil War, most Democrats were aligned with southern states. After the Civil War, the DNC was comprised of two groups; regular Democrats and Dixiecrats. The Dixiecrats stayed true to their racist policies and the rest of the party evolved past racism and would eventually combat it.

The Dixiecrats continued to be part of the DNC until they started breaking off in 1952 and 1956 because they supported Eisenhower for president and identified more with him than the DNC candidates. This led to individual Dixiecrats to leave the DNC for the Republican party. Between 1964 and 1965, more and more white, southern voters leaned towards voting for Republicans as they seemed to identify with the GOP members who DIDN'T vote for the Civil Rights Act. Finally, Nixon seeing an opportunity, embarked on his Southern Strategy and by 1970, the racist holdovers that made up the Dixiecrats finally switched party and became Republicans.

So, yes, there were racists in the DNC...and the Republican party took them in. So, yes, despite origins in combating slavery...the GOP turned into a racist party. Meanwhile, the Democrats were pro-slavery in its origins...became champions against racism.

SIDE NOTE: I wonder how many conservatives who use the argument that the GOP formed to end slavery (which it did), say that a primary cause, or the cause, of the Civil War wasn't slavery? It's kind of hypocritical.

They are Republicans today and even back then as they left the democratic party because of segregation.... Why do GOPers forget this very important part of the story?

In other news, the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (North Korea) has been discovered to be "NOT democratic" in the least.

The LABEL a party takes often times has little or no meaning. In the 1860's the Republicans were the liberals and the Democrats were the right wing. Parties retool and reboot all the time. It is no surprise.

It's also no surprise that a committed bunch of white supremacists have been feverishly devoting the lion's share of their energy and resources to weapons grade historical revisionism.

And that's why we constantly hear, on an almost daily basis, a fable on how "Democrats are the real racists cuz they started the Klan and supported segregation." Selective amnesia is a learned behavior pattern.

If you didn't care about race you wouldn't support detaining children in concentration camps on the basis of the white nationalist delusional obsessive narrative of "replacement".

You have to understand the sick and twisted mind of the left. The only thing "racist" actually means is that you disagree with the insane left. If you don't vote the way they want you to vote, then you are obviously a "racist." If you don't like their craddle-to-grave intrusive government management, then you are clearly a "racist."
