3rd sentence of this article states that R and D parties switched. I one run on sentence it manages to not only tell the lie, but paint half the country as racists.

The citation it used for this BS is a book written in 2019.

Fifth_Party_System

Some do or at least say he would be a progressive Democrat today.

"…. while most conservative, White, usually southern Democrats shifted to the Republican Party as Democrats began increasingly prioritizing civil rights; this process accelerated into the 1960s…."

Are they freaking kidding?!?!?! It was Republicans who pushed civil rights in the 1960s, Democrats had to be dragged along, kicking and screaming

Very true.

I've always said that the world would be better had every one of those Jim Crow era democrats who loved harassing, threatening, killing, maiming, etc. African Americans and other minorities were wiped from the face of the planet back then. For good measure, I'd also want any filth they birthed and raised to think like them wiped away as well.

One can only imagine how much better the country, if not the world, would be had those racist POS never existed.

Isn't it funny how the good guys always seem to win wars.

The older I have gotten the more I realize how much I was lied to throughout most of my life. I don't trust any one source of information anymore from anyone, question everything. Covid was the last straw for me in terms of thinking how far it could go or how it was one side vs another. I also have done all I could to teach my boys to do the same and not take as long as it did for me to wake up.

Almost everything we are told is a lie. OBL once called the United States 'the great Satan.' We need to consider that maybe he was correct. Not American citizens but the entrenched political class. From Covid to endless wars to the Ukraine to the JFK assassination to George Floyd. You name it….

Humans, by their sinful natures, are racist POS. Matters not the melanin in their skin. Tribes will group together and advance their tribe above others. Tulsi vs Hutu. Arabs vs Israelis. Chinese against Vietnamese. Russians against Ukrainians.

I understand your disdain. But in the sweep of history, groups always fight for supremacy. Kill every Jim Crow Democrat, and they'd be replaced by some other disgusting group, such as paternalistic white liberals

I agree they would be replaced, but you've got to start somewhere.

Yep, they just decided to switch jerseys. LOL. ****ing idiots.

This nonsense gets repeated non-stop. They never post a listing of all the politicians that switched parties during this time frame. You would think that such a list would be massive.

It's terrifying yet not surprising it's a college textbook used to justify the lie.

Yes, that's the foundation of "Rules for Radicals". Winners write history, so winning is all that matters. The end always justifies the means.

A lot of republicans north of the Mason-Dixon line.
No matter what is said, the DEMOCRATIC party was (and still is) the party of slavery.

And yet, the losers (liberals) that the winners protect will always complain and accuse about how they won those wars.

The real lesson isn't that America is Satan it is that the world is filled with Satan or more accurately people that have sold their souls. The fallacy we were taught is that somehow America is different. In many ways it is but it is still filled with humans. Never think that simply because this is America that X or Y can never happen here.

The Red Scare (McCarthy was right)
Watergate (government agents turned "journalists" bring down a Republican president)

Two huge ones off the top of my head. The story as presented is basically the opposite of reality, not coincidentally slanted to make the Right look bad.

Global warming is the greatest political black-op in the history of history.

Especially the CNN, I don't trust them. They tend to cut off some important information on the news, they manipulate information and only let you watch what they want you to see.

propaganda - information, especially of a biased or misleading nature, used to promote or publicize a particular political cause or point of view.

Propaganda has been substituted for journalism and 'history' throughout the culture to the extent the two are indiscernible to the young and uninitiated.
