Uh yeah, democrats founded the KKK and were 99% of it's membership for all of its existence, to this day, what is left of it.
They also created the Jim Crow laws, the most racist laws in our history.
In modern day they have moved to intersectionality and being racist against white people and ignoring the needs of Americans while offering free benefits to illegal immigrants.
And calling black republicans "Uncle Toms" and whatnot. And treating their "opponents" sub-human. So, not much has really changed except the targets

Democrats were ashamed of this history so perpetuated the myth that the parties "switched sides" to try and save face.

To recap
Republicans freed the slaves
Democrats have been mad ever since

Quote:


The Klan beginning in the 1860s was a violent effort by white Southern Democrats to fight Republican Reconstruction efforts and recognizing full citizenship rights of Blacks after the Civil War. Reconstruction was ended as a political compromise to resolve the exceedingly close presidential election of 1876. Owing to this, the Klan Democrats often targeted those belonging to the Republican Party with death.

The second Klan flourished nationwide for a few years in the 1920s as state and district organizers profited handsomely by signing up millions of members, selling them distinctive white-robe costumes. The Klan voiced strong support for prohibition, opposed sexual immorality and promoted racism, anti-Semitism, anti-Catholicism and immigration restriction. Dramatic scandals inside the organization and lack of organizational structure caused the Klan to collapse quickly in the late 1920s. By 1928 it was practically defunct.

The third Klan comprised unrelated hate groups that sprang up in the South in the 1960s to fight integration, but it largely fell apart with the defeat of President Jimmy Carter in 1980. Violent leftists, who founded the Klan and have been loyal Democrats since its original inception, are now appealing to groups they had previously persecuted

The first KKK was an movement of white Southerners who opposed Reconstruction. It was founded in 1866 by members of the Democrat Party to inflicting violence against black leaders and white Republicans. One of the founders, and the first "Grand Wizard," was former Confederate General Nathan Bedford Forrest. Attempts were made to break up the Klan by President Ulysses S. Grant and the U.S. Army using the Civil Rights Act of 1871 (also known as the Ku Klux Klan Act).

Republicans stripped white males who engaged in rebellion against the United States of the vote, and gave it to Blacks. Newly freed Blacks held local, state and federal elected and non-elected positions as Republicans. The white males who were deprived of the vote were also barred from holding any civil service position and were universally Democrats. This disenfranchisement created enormous resentment among Democrats, so they formed the Ku Klux Klan to engage in voter intimidation and suppression.

By 1876, the situation had become ungovernable for Republicans. The Republicans had been able to pass the 13th, 14th, and 15th Amendments which guaranteed Blacks basic equality and civil rights, but eventually had to declare an amnesty for whites who engaged in rebellion. Reconstruction ended, and Republicans withdrew from social engineering which had divided the country so deeply and stirred up such bitterness and hatred among Democrats toward both Blacks and Republicans. Reconstruction earned Republicans the undying hatred of Democrats.





The modern day Klansmen is Antifa.

You think you're pointing out shit that every motherfucker on this forum isn't aware of, and you are quite mistaken.

The parties have swapped places on a lot of issues. Democrats put a black man in the white house. How many minorities does the Republican party have in Washington? How many have they ever had?

I'd be willing to bet money that, throughout the entire history of the Republican party, they haven't had more minorities in Washington than the Democrats do this very minute.

Your shit is old and tired. It fucking stinks.

Well, to be fair, leftist crazies HAVE been coming out of the woodwork... member the guy who shot up the republicans at that softball game?

Supporting a political party does NOT equate to representing the party.

There’s crazies on both sides....but the right-wing crazies most definitely have a higher body count.

The guy who posted that wants to mislead people to think that since the victim was a Trump supporter, the murderer must be leftist...just to be fair...

To be fair if you’re reading this on a phone like mine, with my shitty vision, you zoom in to the text and don’t see the poaster (just the poast).

The best way to respond to this thread is by flooding it with positive examples of humans of the left - it's actually pretty easy as there's lots of 'em.






A little late on this one - still don't have enough sunlight up north for a working circadian rhythm - but on the 22nd of January 2018, legendary anarchist author Ursula K Le Guin died aged 88 in Portland. An ardent feminist and advocate for diversity in literature and publishing, she won numerous awards for her fantasy and sci-fi novels.

To be clear, Ursula Le Guin didn’t, as I understand it, call herself an anarchist. When asked about this, she explained that she didn’t call herself an anarchist because she didn’t feel that she deserved to - she didn’t do enough. When asked if it was OK for us to call her one, she said she’d be honored.

Ursula, I promise you, the honor is ours.

When I think about anarchist fiction, the first story that comes into my head is a simple one, called “Ile Forest,” which appeared in Le Guin’s 1976 collection Orsinian Tales. The narrative is framed by two men discussing the nature of crime and law. One suggests that some crimes are simply unforgivable. The other refutes it. Murder, surely, argues the one, that isn’t for self-defense, is unforgivable.

The chief narrator of the story then goes on to relate a story of a murder - a vile one, a misogynist one - that leaves you with both discomfort and with the awareness that no, in that particular case, there would be no justice in seeking vengeance or legal repercussions against the murderer.

In a few thousand words, without even trying, she undermines the reader’s faith in both codified legal systems and vigilante justice.

The easiest book for me to talk about is The Dispossessed, because it’s the most widely-read anarchist utopian novel in the English language. When an anarchist like Le Guin writes her utopia, it’s explicitly “an ambiguous utopia.” It says so, right on the cover. It’s the story of an anarchist scientist at odds with his own anarchist society and the stifling social conventions that can grow up in the place of laws. It’s a story of that anarchist society, far from perfect, favorably compared to both capitalism and state communism. It’s also a story about how beautiful monogamous relationships can be once they’re not compulsory. When the anarcho-curious ask me for a novel to read that explores anarchism, I don’t always suggest it, since the anarchist world represented is so bleak (my go to, more often than not, is Starhawk’s The Fifth Sacred Thing). It’s too anarchist of a text to serve as propaganda.

Le Guin was also a pacifist. I’m not one myself, but I respect her position on the matter. I think it was that pacifism that helped her write about violent anti-colonial struggle with as much nuance as she did in The Word for World is Forest. There’s an inherent kindness in the violence in that book, which pits an indigenous alien race (the inspiration for the Ewoks of Star Wars, incidentally, in case you needed more proof that anarchists invent everything) against human invaders. The glory of struggle is muted, rendered realistically. The glory of it is as dangerous as the actual violence, as it should be.

Le Guin and other authors blew open the doors of what science fiction could be, presenting social sciences as equal to hard sciences. Her novel The Left Hand of Darkness is about people who alternate between male and female. As I understand it, it was an unprecedented work when it came out in 1969. I didn’t love it the way that I’ve loved some of her other books, but I’m not sure I can imagine what the world would look like if it had never been written. I can’t point to another work that has done more to seed the idea that gender can and should be fluid.

The Lathe of Heaven is psychedelic fiction at its finest and a parable of the power held by artists and those who imagine other worlds. Presciently, it explores a society destroyed by global warming.

For the luckier kids of my generation, Le Guin’s fantasy series, Earthsea, filled the role that Harry Potter has for people younger than me. I wish I’d read it as a kid, though I don’t regret how often I read The Hobbit. In the world of Earthsea, the villains who threaten the world are aspects of the heroes who have to save it.

The words Le Guin has written that have meant the most to me, though, are her short stories. If you want to understand why so many people cried to hear of her death, read “The Ones Who Walked Away from Omelas.” It is, simply, and I don’t say this hyperbolically, perfect. It’s short, and beautiful, and it’s exactly the kind of story that can change the world.

I haven’t read all of Le Guin’s books, and I have to admit, I’m glad about that today. I’m glad that there are more of her stories waiting for me.

Just want to concur. The dispossessed is amazing.

Been meaning to start my re-read, but I’m super busy and, if I start, I’m 100% getting sucked into her world and rereading all her novels again. Maybe next month...

P.S. for some reason I always assumed Arsula was a man’s pen name. Subconscious bias at its worst...:sad:

Shroomism should go back to advocating the murder of the police and running over protesters instead of pointing out that democrats used to be bad on racial issues but now the republicans have taken the mantle.

Quote:

Uh yeah, democrats founded the KKK and were 99% of it's membership for all of its existence, to this day, what is left of it.
They also created the Jim Crow laws, the most racist laws in our history.
In modern day they have moved to intersectionality and being racist against white people and ignoring the needs of Americans while offering free benefits to illegal immigrants.
And calling black republicans "Uncle Toms" and whatnot. And treating their "opponents" sub-human. So, not much has really changed except the targets
