I agree with everything you said there Hates

I would only add a qualifier that many times 'agendas' are necessary and focused goals, and that at any time there are several that serve to uplift some of those at the bottom and indirectly lift everyone else with them...

speaking of silly intellectual dishonesty





You can say anything..... it's what history can prove

Democrats' Hoodwinking of Blacks

Ask any black person which political party has been black people's political ally. With near unanimity, blacks would answer the Democratic Party. Asked which political party has been hostile to blacks, they'd say the Republican Party with similar unanimity. For better answers, check out Prager University's five-minute clip "The Inconvenient Truth About the Democratic Party," by Carol Swain, professor of political science at Vanderbilt University.

Since its founding in the late 1820s, the Democratic Party has defended slavery, started the Civil War and opposed Reconstruction. The Democratic Party imposed segregation. Its members engaged in the lynchings of blacks and opposed the civil rights acts of the 1950s and '60s. During Reconstruction, hundreds of black men were elected to Southern state legislatures as Republicans, and 22 black Republicans served in the U.S. Congress by 1900. The Democratic Party did not elect a black man to Congress until 1935.

President Woodrow Wilson was a Progressive Democrat and an avowed racist who shared many views with the Ku Klux Klan. He resegregated the federal civil service. He screened the racist film "The Birth of a Nation," originally titled "The Clansman," at the White House; it was the very first movie ever played at the White House.

What was the party of Orval Faubus, the Arkansas governor who blocked the desegregation of Little Rock schools and defied the U.S. Supreme Court's unanimous 1954 Brown v. Board of Education decision? What was the party of Theophilus Eugene Connor, known as Bull Connor, who, as city commissioner, set vicious dogs, fire hoses and billy clubs on black civil rights demonstrators in Birmingham, Alabama? Connor said: "You can never whip these birds if you don't keep you and them separate. I found that out in Birmingham. You've got to keep your white and black separate." If you answered that Faubus and Connor were Democrats, go to the head of the class. By the way, it was Republican President Dwight D. Eisenhower who sent troops to ensure that black students could attend Little Rock's Central High School.

ask who has traditionally been home with the kids and most would say moms

but times changed

the south was full of those who benefited from segregation and oppression of blacks, and while the democrats had a strong hold on the south and vice versa, the southern democrats were represented well in their racism

however,

when the southerners started migrating to the republican party, their voice of racism did as well,

history has proven the south to be no friend to racial 'equality', politics has shown that the south has switched from primarily supporting democrats to primarily supporting republicans,,,

Mmm, yes, before trying to use history to prove something, it's wise to actually learn it first.

Remember (or rather, look it up and find it out) that even a pretense that the Republicans are the Party of Lincoln, isn't all that fabulous. Read the Emancipation Proclamation carefully: it specifically freed ONLY the slaves that were not at that time, under the control of Union forces. Thus, at the moment of it's proclamation, Lincoln specifically AVOIDED freeing ANYONE. The main reason for the proclamation, coming as it did from a man who's favored idea to deal with the problems of Blacks in America was to return them all en masse to Africa, was to try to cause disruption in the Confederacy.

Lincoln even said if he could have avoided the war without freeing a single slave , he would (have).

The trick is not learning history but rather learning from it.

Govt is and always has been FORCE and favors a select few. It's a club the people are rarely invited to join.... any people.

Political parties are a form of segregation in and of themselves, and why I refrain from taking a title to any.

I refuse to give any a pass.

Communist platform:

"We are committed to the overthrow of the presently existing, oppressive Republic and all of its economic and social institutions.

We favor:

The abolition of private property.

The establishment of land reform programs, so that the government can take over the land and distribute it for the common good.

Government ownership of all industrial productive forces, so that they can be run for the benefit of the people rather than the capitalists.

A foreign policy that regards the Soviet Union as an ally against capitalism.

To the German people: The cause of your misery is the fact that French, British, and American capitalists are exploiting German workers to get rich themselves. Germans, unite to get rid of this terrible burden."





I know some person created a 'term' for politicians being compared to Hitler

Maybe I can make one for when political parties are compared to communists,,,,


though, there is a similar rhetoric using fear tactics and blaming outsiders for all manner of things,,,which seems common to a certain party

even still, as to the totality of the communist party, we are still a country mostly supportive of individual wealth which we learned to attribute to merit , which keeps most in support of the classism that keeps a small percentage at the top with the wealth and the power and the rest struggling,, and neither party really does alot to dismantle this type of corporatocracy as it would fly in the face of the supposed American Ideal of 'freedom'....both sides support the idea that people should be FREE to acquire wealth individually

The 75-member Congressional Progressive Caucus, co-chaired by Reps. Raul Grijalva and Keith Ellison, is closely allied with the Democratic Socialists of America. The Communist Party USA identifies Progressive Caucus members as its “allies in Congress.”

You have things backwards. If we follow your logic, anyone who sees the Republicans or their allies the Tea Party as THEIR "allies in Congress," thereby CAUSE the GOP to be guilty of THEIR beliefs and goals.

You are, by your own logical reasoning alone, declaring that the GOP are Nazis, White Supremacists, and anti-Constitutionalists, seeking to overthrow the existing central government of the United States for personal gain.

Quack all you like.

You quacked yourself. You declared a principle, that if someone says they like you, that you are therefor responsible for THEIR ENTIRE AGENDA. That's what your "quack" comment means.

Are you ready to rephrase it?

If you look behind the curtain both parties are controlled by a combination of corporate intrests globalists and a criminal cabal led by the Russian mafia. Israel is stealing the latest US technology and giving it to the Russians. The USA is no longer a democracy and its populace is brainwashed by its corrupt media.
