Muh party switch. That is the fake narrative that they desperately cling to in their feeble attempts to distance themselves from the evil history of their party. Amazingly, people seem to believe it.

Any good resources on what the exact claim is and how to debunk it?

I remember hearing about it all the way back in high school ("ThE PaRtIeS SwItCheD") but ever since I feel like I'm getting biased information.

Last couple minutes

Search "Dinesh D'Souza" - he has sourced-details books and long form speeches.

Some key points are little things like: No one can provide evidence of any Republican owning a slave.

Doesn't that feed into their switch narrative..."Those were actually democrats not owning slaves since the parties switched"?

I can't believe how stupid that even sounds but we're dealing with history-deniers and erasers so I want to get it right before distributing red pills.

Watch the long form stuff - Dinesh covers a lot of things that can be independently examined ... if they're dispassionate

Several documents-of-record by Lyndon Johnson and several other things 'inconvenient', but I can't recall at the moment.

But TDS, the bluepilled, they can't be convinced by a wall of facts.

This is why Biden's "You aren't black" would be so telling ... it he was competent or, really, even relevant at the time.

They're using "Shoot the Messenger" and "Ad Hominem" as valid techniques - and their entire 'team' is fine with it.

Yea, but my left wing professor told me it happened, so it must be true. Even though there is really no evidence of it really happening.

And? Just because Reagan said it doesn’t make it true.
