He seems to always mention how he has served on the BAR. He'll take one step forward, then two steps back with a "I've served on the BAR for 20 years" comment. Then he'll take a step forward, then mention the BAR again. Then he'll go in between talking about how he won't dignify the conversation by adding to it and mentioning the BAR. He did this for 10 minutes earlier. "I won't add, I served the BAR. I won't add, I served the BAR." Etc. X10min

I literally can not comprehend people who trumpet this idea. It's an idiotic argument made by people with a really simple view of politics. The main purpose of it is to get people to think that today's republicans would be pro slavery if in office 150 years ago to make people think they're racist.

[–]foobar5678 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

But there was a switch...

Either everyone in the North and South physically switched places. Or everyone in the North and South changed their minds to what the other thought. Or the parties changed their platforms. It's obviously the latter.

Unless you think there was some mass migration and all the Republicans moved south after the Civil war, its pretty clear that this was a North-South divide and not party centric.

[–]TheSwagMonstah 6ポイント7ポイント  (3子コメント)

To be fair he was probably referencing the Voting Rights Act of 1965 which was passed under a democratic Senate and House and signed into law by LBJ.

The 15th Amendment was butchered from its original intent quite quickly after its passage. Due to poll taxes and literacy tests, many minorities were effectively disenfranchised until the passage of this bill.

So while his statement is not objectively true, it's also not outlandishly false. Complex situations can almost never be captured with one sentences.

[–]GarrioValereAZ 6ポイント7ポイント  (1子コメント)

Many people in general were disenfranchised, not just minorities. Contrary to popular belief there's never been a point when all white men were wealthy landowners. Lower class uneducated 'rednecks' were a thing then just as they are now.

What is going on here? This isn't a good argument. The parties have switched multiple times historically. Abraham Lincoln was a part of a republican party that was the progressive party of the nation, while the democrats were conservatives. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Party_switching_in_the_United_States

republicans are now the conservative party. This is just nonsense. He used the wrong word, he should have said progressives/liberals.

[–]sun_wolf 7ポイント8ポイント  (0子コメント)

The Republicans have taken a conservative, or strict, reading of The Constitution and the Democrats have taken a liberal, or loose, reading of The Constitution. That's why the Republicans freed the slaves; they recognized that "all men are created equal" and "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness" must also apply to black people. The Democrats had a looser reading, claiming that blacks did not have personhood, and therefore those parts of The Constitution didn't apply to them.

This loose vs. strict reading of the founding documents continues today, just as the Democrats now argue that "the general welfare" opens the door to a welfare state and a "well-regulated militia" means only the army should have guns. They play fast and loose with The Constitution, and always have.

No they didn't. Compare the Republican platforms of 1856, 1956 and today. A lot of similarities. Likewise, the Democrats went from keeping blacks on literal plantations, to enforcing Jim Crow laws, to creating a new form of plantation: welfare. The people sorting the parties might have changed, but the core beliefs did not. Otherwise they wouldn't have kept those names if they "switched".

I don't get it. How are these two things the same? What are you saying? Why are you hating on /r/the_donald, and for what? So many questions.

You do realize Lincoln was, in fact, a Republican, right? What the actual fuck did you think you were saying, making that post?

Yes I know Lincoln was a republican. I just hate when people praise that fact and how democrats were the party of Jim crow and how that's somehow relevant to the how the parties actually are today. It just makes us look stupid.

I am a republican. But didn't the ideologies and beliefs of the parties switch?
