Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

"there was no switch. That's why you see all of those Democrats waving the Confederate flag. That why all of the Confederate states are deep blue."
Black people had already switched over to the Democrats in the 1940s well before the Civil Rights Act happened. The "Big Switch" in the 1960s was North vs South, not White vs Black.
No one is saying black people switched any thing. We are talking about how the Democrats were confederate supporters during the civil war and immediately after, and then there was a switch where the Republicans became the party of confederate supporters. Which is why it's republicans now who are flying the racist and traitorous confederate flags now, and no longer the democrats.
They're a tiny minority within the GOP, and I hate their actions as much as you do.
Lol Mississippi is still flying the Confederate flag at their capitol. "Just a tiny minority!" Where have you been the past 2 decades, defending flying the Confederate flag as some kind of "southern pride" thing? And weren't you just arguing that the Democrats are the party of the KKK? Which, of course, is not true, but it didn't seem you care much about something being a "tiny minority" then.
