It's that really idiotic conservative talking point that because the democratic party was the one that did racist things in the past republicans couldn't possibly be the racist ones now. What I don't get about that, though, is the idea that the KKK was started by democrats so the republicans can't be the the racist party now, but then why do the KKK vote republican now? THey decided to mend their ways and vote for the non-racist party now, or perhaps the KKK is still just as racist, and who they support has changed with things like the Southern Strategy. |
I figured as much. The only time people urge you to do research yourself is when they cannot back up theirs with facts^^
If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.
