The projection is amazing. Minority groups suffering not just verbal but physical threats/actions for centuries and the “offense” is a contorted, incomplete read of what Biden said? Yet, the liberals are the “snowflakes”?
They preach violence and hate, call for civil war, commit an insurrection but a Dem says they preach violence and hate, call for civil war, and commit an insurrection and it’s the DEM who’s in the wrong? How do they not burst into flames from the hypocrisy?
It was Southerners that started the Civil War. They fired on an American flag at Fort Sumter, South Carolina, and celebrated when the garrison there surrendered. Patriots, my a@&%
Not bad enough too many of the Alt-Reich invaded Jan. 6 waving the flag of secessionists. Many were also waving the flag of those advocating genocide of those they consider undesireable.
They threatened the future of our nation. They threatened justice and decency. They threatened any notion of equality or racial harmony. But actually, one thing they did NOT threaten was “democracy.” The Confederacy was also a democracy.
Apparently being a crybaby is contagious, because just LOOK how many Republicans are crybabies these days, after Traitor Trump’s one and done, compared to before Traitor Trump (the biggest crybaby possibly in political history).
What these revisionists purposely forget is the majority of white people in the south at that time were poor Sharecropers also under the thumb of rich white people !
Yeah, sadly the same mentality never died out because Lincoln was too soft on them in the aftermath of the war, then he was assassinated, and Johnson was super extra soft on them.
Bull! Fake news. No quotation marks, no labels. Not your best work, Mike. “We are not enemies, but friends.

But what’s worse is that freein’ them slaves was just a slap in the face of the slaves who came before them and were never freed.

Lincoln also tried to avoid a civil war and called for reconciliation. Then he went after the threat.
