Right?

Mhmmm

Yes

Ffs

And Jim Crow

Republicans pushed for the Civil Rights Act

And most of the people marching in the 60s were registered republicans

But also a decent amount of democrats

50s and 60s is when the left started getting fucky

Oh kek

The south used to be completely Democrat. But in recent times more and more have switched to Republican due to economic reasons.

Daddy was a clansman a southern democrat, bedsheet robes and a funny lookin hat

Republicans tended to be more well educated on various topics, thus more open minded. This was a time when being open minded didn't threaten to remove all tradition.

@Ondsinet Confederates would probably be Republicans today. Some still exist, and they tend to caucus with the libertarians

In the purely political sense of the term

@Fitzydog But for different reasons

Yeah they would be in a very strange sociopolitical position.

Depending on their view of race equality.

From a political science standpoint, confederalism is closer to Republicanism than democracy

Likely neither party would want to associate with them now.

Race aside

Well yes their political system

That was a single issue

Idk

The north were just as racist

Just thinking maybe the democrats should be our guys instead

The north just wanted blacks GONE, not slaves

I mean, yeah. But they didn't kill people and beat them for stupid bullshit as frequently.

Planned Parenthood was also created by some KKK dude and mostly existed in black neighborhoods for no particular reasons

<:think_madpepe:378717098630971395>

Eugenics

Started by a woman IIRC

It was started by progressives who were buddies with fascists

And now democrats have free abortions for all in their campaigns

To combat black population

Shhh

I mean that's literally their goal when they were founded, the founder admitted to it.

US political parties never switched sides. That's the big secret.

Exactly
