100th Anniversary Of The Tulsa Race Massacre.

And it does seem that history is incomprehensible

Confederates - dEmocrat party
KKK - dEmocrat party
Jim Crow - dEmocrat party
Who voted NOT to abolish slavery? That’s right
Who opposed ending segregation, good old dEms

The Republican Party was founded to oppose slavery and combat the oppressive dEmocrat party.

Nothing has changed

So I guess we shouldn't teach any history in schools then, since that was then and this is now, right?

Well we are in the middle of history revisionist and tearing down statues etc, so maybe not...lol

You’ve got the internet too

*yawn*

keep beating around the bush by manner of technicalities to be "right" since it's so important to you.

a reply to: Breakthestreak

Ask yourself this: Who founded the Republican Party, conservative southerners or progressive northerners? Who was the Confederacy, same two choices? Who started the Klan, same two choices? Who was for Jim Crow, same two choices? Who constitutes the current parties (for the most part), same two choices?

Can you answer those honestly?

Beating around the bush implies not being direct, if you think there's a more direct way to tell you that there's no Nazi monuments in Germany other than telling you that there's no Nazi monuments in Germany I'm open for another way that enables you to understand that there are no Nazi monuments in Germany.

Yeah, mine isn't showing me what you claimed, which is why I asked for citations.

a reply to: AugustusMasonicus

Northerners started it, to combat he racist dEmocrat party
The confederacy was the southern dEmocrats
The Klan was started by th same dEmocrats

Who was for Jim Crow? Well I believe it was the racists

Lo and behold, who are the racists? Same as today “poor kids are just as smart as white kids”

a reply to: Breakthestreak

So southern conservatives are at the root of what you listed. At least you were honest.

It isn't a party thing, it's an ideology thing.

a reply to: AugustusMasonicus

Southern dEmocrats

Yep

They proudly own it too

Same ideology in their party today

a reply to: Breakthestreak

I don't think very many southerners are owning it, they pretend that because they're Republicans now they can disassociate form the past when their relatives were Democrats. If they saw the original Republican Party platforms from the 1860's-1910's they'd think it was Obama running the Party.

Remember when the dEmocrat party apologised for the creation of the KKK?

Me neither

Baby steps huh? It certainly won’t be the current dEms who do that. They don’t really oppose that era

a reply to: AugustusMasonicus

The problem with that analysis is that it's based on geography rather than populations and their respective voting rights.

Answer me this, what was the position of those progressive northerners on the 3/5ths compromise?

a reply to: AugustusMasonicus

They weren’t around back then.
Sins of the father and all that

But the dEms certainly havnt made any amends for their confederacy or their KKK

I believe they should

They accepted the southern conservative request so that the United States could be officially formed. In my opinion they should have not.

You're basically shooting down your own argument with this.

The facts, southern conservatives and northern progressives were at odds at that time and still, to a large degree, are today. This is reality, not convenient party tags used to score imaginary points.

Again, history, it's like it's anathema around here.

The southern dEmocrat request

The confederates were dEmocrats
The KKK were dEmocrats
The most visibly racist political party in the United States today is the dEmocrats

Even their fraud-in-chief vocally opposed allowing mixed races in schools

But he’s forgiven, what a great guy he is.

I especially like how he gave the eulogy at senator Byrd’s funeral. A dEmocrat senator and a high ranking member of the KKK

Imagine if a different President had done that

a reply to: AugustusMasonicus

Uh, no. They argued that slaves should be counted as zero people. Southern states wanted them to be counted as a whole person. Thus the 3/5ths compromise was born.

Those "progressive" northerners, had they gotten their way, likely wouldn't have abolished slavery at all (as evidenced by lincoln's saying as much). They hated slavery because they didn't use slaves (but they had no problem buying slave made goods, kinda like today!) and the south using slaves gave the south power that the north thought should belong to them. It wasn't some righteous crusade, just a political power struggle which we retell through a false narrative of "the enlightened vs the backwards"

Today the dems do the same thing with illegal immigrants (modern day slaves) and the republicans have the same view as before. The power struggle continues on.

Black entrepreneurs don’t have lawyers or accountants

biDen

Poor kids are just as smart as white kids

Black people don’t know how to use the internet

Black people aren’t capable of obtaining or carrying an ID

It’s evident that conservatives of today view blacks as EQUAL and EQUALLY CAPABLE to everyone’s else and feel no need to coddle them or give them a helping hand

But the racist progressives certainly view them as ‘lesser’

My favourite from joe biDen: “I don’t want my kids going to school in a racial jungle”

And now look at his kid.

Who is 'they' and provide your citations.

If you're going to try and argue that it wasn't southerners coming up with the 3/5ths compromise maybe you can explain Pinckney and Wilson, it was their proposal.
