Haven't watched but the Democrats have a much more racist history than the Republicans. The Democrats only really became the progressives on the issue once JFK was elected.

It was a video showing how the Democrats are really the racist party. And I think it implied they[Dems] are going to go on a killing spree like the nazis and the Chinese communists. Or at least that's what I picked up from it. 

 

The facism thing was pretty interesting though 

no thats not the point at all.

the point was just to show the Republican party has very little racist ties or background to racism, even into the 20th century.

with the racist likes of Woodrow Wilson, FDR, Robert Byrd, or all the democrats that kept going against the civil rights act. it was constantly Republicans that tried to get the civil rights act passed, 1st during Dwight Eisenhower, but that got filibustered by democrats, then many years later, the civil rights act finally passed under LBJ thanks to the republicans in congress, who voted for it in much higher numbers than the democrats.
