The Party ideology switch is nothing but a big lie where Democrats are trying to project their racist history onto Republicans.
Exactly. I guess it helps the Democrats sleep at night pretending the unwoke history of their party does not exist.

The only leader to order the destruction of a city by atomic weapons was a Democrat. Or are they now pretending that Truman was a Republican too?

Seriously, had someone tell me their son had a HS history teacher say that Republicans had dropped the Abomb.

Any grave anywhere should be honored. I don't care who they are. I always saw these dis-respectful people as cowards, not just now, but all through the years. I would love to see the ages match and have the person buried all of a sudden appear. Dis-respecting a grave where, of course, the person cannot defend themselves is pretty low. Disgustingly low.

So, your lineage was a bunch of dirty, rotten democrats, eh?

Confederates fought and died for the Democrats. Now they kick over their graves' tombstones.
Yes, the slavers are kicking and screaming in their coffins wanting to become Republicans because Democrats dont support slavery anymore.

None of those dead soldiers that fought for the south owned slaves. They were young kids fighting for their states. Those coward scum that destroyed these grave sights are just that along with those that support these scum. These scum deserve some “special” attention.

So brave to attack dead soldiers. Spineless maggots.

Jim Crow laws were all passed and enforced by Democrats.

Civil Rights Acts passed because a higher % of Republicans voted for them than the Democrats.

Of course you can believe what you want, but soldiers fought and died because, especially Virginia, was invaded by Lincoln. When an "enemy" invades your territory, you just don't sit back and watch them take over your Railroads, Shipyards, allow Bridges to be burnt and even worse as the war progressed, you defend your territory.

Slave owners were a pretty small percentage. If you think a bunch of guys all got together and decided to fight because the Jones farm 20 miles away may lose his slaves, I've got a bridge to show you.
The south literally declared it, so yeah.

A rightfully-governing body is not "invading" when a legal subordinate defies the law.

This usage of "invasion" is extremist rhetoric from the wrong side of history, mate.

Right... the confederates are soldiers for BLM and Antifa lol. You say the confederates are tied with today’s Democrats, then why are all the conservatives the ones getting triggered about this confederate stuff? You should be cheering on the desecration of Democrat memorials.
