From the outside, it continues to surprise me when people bring this up, as if they're either too ignorant to know about the Dixiecrat schism or want to pretend that everyone else is. What's the point? It's so easy to look up.

It's just propaganda, optics, PR. Obviously the Democrat party in 1940 has absolutely no relation to the Democrat party in 2025, except for the name. People use that same name to smear the 2025 party because they can. And it works because propaganda works. That's how Germany got Hitler and it's how the USA got Elon.

That's a big lie. We know who the dixiecrats were. The vast majority of them stayed in the Democrat party their entire lives.

Some of them, like Senator Byrd were lauded by Hillary Clinton as a big influence.

I can't wait until the Democrat party finally pays out reparations to all of the descendents of people they enslaved.
