The incontrovertible truth is that the white supremacists are Repub. We can look at which rallies have the Confederate flags, which Nazis rallies have the “good guys on both sides,” and which insurrections have the “Camp Auschwitz” hoodies. We can all see it. You are fooling nobody. The absolute truth is somewhere between the Emancipation Proclamation and now, most Repubs have switched from anti- to pro-Confederate.

You and I both know that the Southern Strategy occurred. You want to pretend it doesn’t. That is why you badgered until you could find one specific thing that you could deny with whatever outlandish claims you can think of. You want a year, month, and day so that you can smugly say, “nuh-uh, one Dem was racist beyond that point therefore it is wrong.”

Even then, the best you can come up with there is “that racism is actually libertarianism” about Goldwater and “nuh-uh, not true” about Atwater.

Why am I wasting my time interacting with a disingenuous bad faith liar? Look at where the racists are gathered. Read an actual article on Southern Strategy if you want to know why Repub voters and Repub leadership are majority racist.
