“But the parties switched REEEEEEEEEEEEE”

That’s like saying the Nazi party could “switch”.

Let’s just say the Nazi party existed to this day, became a good party full of good people who actually cared for everyone - and had completely different values from the ‘old’ Nazi party.

Why the fuck would you keep the Nazi branding?

Not only that, it requires the good people to simultaneaouly become the bad people. Say there is an Orange club for people who love oranges and dislike apples and an Apple club for people who like apples and dislike oranges. Come up with any plausible scenario where the Orange club switches to apples at the same exact time the Apple club switches to oranges. It is literally impossible.

My favorite historical tidbit: Strom Thurmond did, indeed switch from democrat to republican.

  • AFTER he had a religious conversation, a change of heart.

As a republican, he hired blacks in senior positions of leadership in his campaign and office because he outright rejected his racist heritage. He became republican BECAUSE he stopped being racist!

It's like saying Russia is still communist. Or Germany is still nazi. The South knows the Democrat party best, just as Russia knows communism best, and Germany and nazism.

Racists like the KKK infiltrated the republican party because they were tired of losing.

There are fakes and snakes in both parties. RINOs are a thing.
