Only Republicans are silly enough to attempt a point, using pre-industrial Amendment memes.
Link?Democrats still enslave blacks. Just use different methods now.
You need a link to common sense?? Jeeze you are a true liberal. “Do what you’re told and be mad when we say”Link?
Everybody knows Phil Knight donates to the Republican party and has made billions from his slaves.
Who touts that flag??? I don’t and I find it’s for losers. It’s def not a representation of the Republican Party. Is all left leaning flags representing the democrat party?Humorous how conservatives love talking about Dems enslaving blacks, meanwhile the conservatives are the ones touting the "heritage" represented by the Confederate flag in the present.
Playing the victim makes conservatives as bad as the worst of the progressives.
really? Who wants black people free to compete in a fair market??? Republicans. Who wants to create an unfair market to garner votes? Democrats. Try reading up on Lyndon b Johnson.The parties realigned in the 60's don't be an idiot...and crack a book once in a while. No wonder you guys hate education you were horrible at school.

Lyndon B. JohnsonLet's face it. Our is in a crack. We're gonna have to let this bill pass. [Said to Senator John Stennis (D-MS) during debate on the Civil Rights Act of 1957]
Lyndon B. JohnsonI'll have them s voting Democratic for the next two hundred years. [Said to two governors regarding the Civil Rights Act of 1964, according to then-Air Force One steward Robert MacMillan]
Lyndon B. JohnsonBetter to have your enemies inside the tent pissing out, than outside the tent pissing in.

Aren't you on record in here as saying we should hold people responsible for the sins of their ancestors?How many times are you fools going to try to present this kind of intellectually dishonest nonsense as if Democrats or Republicans in the mid-1800's have anything to do with Democrats or Republicans of 2020?
The irony here vis a vis your view on historical figures is rich.Yes, really. The voting blocks that make up American political parties have shifted and realigned like tectonic plates since the very beginning, when it was Federalists and Democratic-Republicans. It's pretty basic American history content.
Maybe you should try reading up on LBJ. What party would he be in today? I'm not so sure either way, and you aren't either. It's difficult to speculate, for a lot of reasons, but it's a perfect example of why it's absolutely ridiculous to try to talk about what any party was doing 30, 50, 100+ years ago in relation to what they're doing today.
I know you want to make a point here but this is so disingenuous it is not funny.
Says the ignorant who judges historical figures by today's sensibilities.No, the irony here is an ignorant racist like you thinking that he understands concepts like "historical". ?
Kind of like how No one now has anything to do with slave owners then.How many times are you fools going to try to present this kind of intellectually dishonest nonsense as if Democrats or Republicans in the mid-1800's have anything to do with Democrats or Republicans of 2020?
If history reflects badly on democrats, then those guys would be republicans now. If the history favors democrats then, they are still democrats now.No, the irony here is some doofy ignorant racist like you thinking that he understands concepts like "historical". ?
Those are Asian slaves, totally differentLink?

Not all conservatives tout the heritage of the Confederate flag, but nice try....that's humorousHumorous how conservatives love talking about Dems enslaving blacks, meanwhile the conservatives are the ones touting the "heritage" represented by the Confederate flag in the present.
Playing the victim makes conservatives as bad as the worst of the progressives.
Great deflection...well done and crafty.Yes, really. The voting blocks that make up American political parties have shifted and realigned like tectonic plates since the very beginning, when it was Federalists and Democratic-Republicans. It's pretty basic American history content.

That is why it is impossible to put todays values on people and issues that happened 160 years ago. Oregon terrorist pulled down a statue of Thomas Jefferson what's next Mount Rushmore.Humorous how conservatives love talking about Dems enslaving blacks, meanwhile the conservatives are the ones touting the "heritage" represented by the Confederate flag in the present.

Another one... well doneIt literally can't be considered a "deflection", because I wasn't responding to a question or a comment directed specifically to me.
How do you not know what that word means?
Humorous how conservatives love talking about Dems enslaving blacks, meanwhile the conservatives are the ones touting the "heritage" represented by the Confederate flag in the present.I didn't say all conservatives.
As an ideological argument, there certainly aren't liberals flouting the heritage or rebellious spirit of the symbol. It's a symbol that's exclusively protected by a segment of right-wingers.
