    You should look at the history of voting rights acts since 1964.

    If you're aware of it, why do you keep posting things that make it appear you are not aware of it at all?

    An old white man with immense power in 1960s America was racist? This is HUGE. I have to rethink everything I thought I knew about American history. You've really opened Pandora's box here....I may need a mental health day.

    LBJ also said that this was going to hand the south to the Republican party. Why do you think a Democratic President pushing civil rights would say that?

    LBJ was not a nice man and he frequently used "colorful" language. He still pushed and signed the Civil Rights Act.

    This is why it's a bizzarre argument to claim that he's a racist when many of his policies directly addressed racism.

    Pretty sure LBJ would be considered racist in 2023, but that’s the issue with applying contemporary standards towards folks.

    Instead the South did the opposite and glorified the confederacy and enacted Jim Crow… and there are still plenty of folks that lived during Jim Crow in 2023….

    And 21st century conservatives are up to it again… this time with “religious freedom”. Conservatives are pushing for a religious Jim Crow.

    When it’s a pattern, I would say it is inherent.

    It actually doesn't make them anymore valid whatsoever.

    Gotta love the "do not talk, foreigner!" xenophobic undertone from the hateful leftist here.

    Go post some more hateful “tweets” or “x’s” about gays and transgender folks….Your boy Erdogan looks favorably on that…

    I assume if you stopped posting it’s because they found the child p*rnography.

    Yes. It does make them more valid because he can actually for for policy. You on the other hand cannot. You can just get your kicks by talking about trans people and the "woke".
