1. Just a short time back any sane person would have scoffed at the idea that the major political party would have anti-white racism as it's central agenda....or that it would champion the view that incantations and witches brews could change men into women or vice versa.
But here we are.
The insanity of the Democrats/Progressives has spun so far out of control that.....well....the thread title.
2. Portland, which is ground zero for the insanity, has the
Ida B.
Wells-Barnett
High School ....BTW.... "
By 1909 Ida B. Wells was the most prominent anti-lynching campaigner in the United States." (1909) Ida B. Wells, "Lynching, Our National Crime" •...
....
Ida B. Well was anti-lynching, which meant she was a Republican.
Democrats in Congress blocked every anti-lynching bill Republicans authored.
"The lynchings were Southern whites' extrajudicial efforts to maintain social control,
white supremacy, and
Democratic Party rule, ..... From 1882 to 1968, "...nearly 200 anti-lynching bills were introduced in Congress, and three passed the House. Seven presidents between 1890 and 1952 petitioned Congress to pass a federal law."
[10] Not one bill was approved by the Senate because of the powerful opposition of the Southern Democratic voting block."

3. Ida B. Wells-Barnett High School wants to swap Trojan mascot for evergreen tree....but there is hand-wringing and pearl-clutching going on about the switch.
See if you understand the warped mind of Progressives/Democrats enough to figure out why the angst over the switch.
4. Yup.....you got it:
A committee comprised of students, staff and community members suggested the evergreens as the school’s new mascot.
“Evergreens are characterized by the life-giving force of their foliage, the strength of their massive trunk, and the depth of their roots—in an individual tree and as a forest of trees,” Ellen Whatmore, a teacher and mascot committee member at Wells-Barnett High School said, reading from a resolution. “They provide shelter and sustenance. They have histories that preclude us and will continue in perpetuity after we are no more.”
But just before the Portland Public Schools Board of Education’s vote to approve the new mascot Tuesday, March 30, Director Michelle DePass shared community concerns of an unwanted correlation between Ida B. Wells—the historic Black activist, and Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist who documented and crusaded against lynching—and a tree which could conjure up reminders of hanging people with ropes from branches."
The board delayed the mascot vote until the next meeting."
The adoption of a new mascot for Ida B. Wells-Barnett High School was put on pause, after concerns about potential connotations of lynching.

Now don't forget.....never say "tree" around a Liberal!!!
This time switch is still invalid.
It is true that right after the Civil War, southerners disliked republicans as being the "party of Lincoln".
So then traditionally called themselves democrats.
Southern conservatives used to be democrats.
But that has noting to do with modern times, when republicans became the party of the wealthy instead of the "party of Lincoln".
Now southern conservatives are republicans.
The switch happened in the 1960s and 1970s.
So historical events involving southern democrats and race, are invalid for current use if they are before 1960.
The biggest switch happened in 1964 when LBJ pushed southern democrats to back his civil rights bill.
Another mistake you are making is claiming that the southern democrats defined the democratic party.
They did not, since the democratic party was larger than the south and pre-existing.
The republican party did not even exist at all until 1854, so everyone was a democrat before then.
A lie.
Not a single thing has changed except the anti-black racism of your party is now anti-white racism.
A review of your party.
1. The Democrats are, and have always been, the party of slavery, segregation, and second-class citizenship, the party that stood in schoolhouse doors to block black school children….until Republicans sent in the 101st airborne
2. It is the party of Jefferson Davis, of Nathan Bedford Forrest and the Knights of the KKK, Planned Parenthood, concentration camps for American citizens, and restrictions on free speech.
3. It is the party of Mao ornaments on the White House Christmas tree, and of James Hodgkinson, and of Communist Bernie Sanders, of pretend genders.
4. The Democrat Party is the oldest racist organization in America, the trail of tears, the author of Jim Crow and the bigotry of low expectations, filibustered against women getting the vote and killed every anti-lynching bill to get to Congress
5. The Democrat Party is the number one funder of the Islamic Revolution in Tehran….to the tune of $100 billion to the Ayatollahs….and gave Hezbollah the go-ahead to sell cocaine in America.
6. It is the party of anti-Semitism and Louis Farrakhan, and of the first Cabinet member ever to be held in contempt of Congress.
7. It is the party that admits its future depends on flooding the country with illegal aliens, and telling them to vote.
8. It is the party that couldn't suck up to the Castro Brothers enough, and treats the Bill of Rights like a Chinese menu..
9. The Democrats got us into the Civil War…Jefferson Davis .... Woodrow Wilson, WWI….FDR, WWII……Truman, Korean War….VietNam, JFK and LBJ…..yet they want to weaken our military.
10. The Democrats are the party that looks at the mayhem their gun laws have produced in Chicago, ……and this is their model for the nation.
11. I should mention that the Democrat Party was used as a model by Adolph Hitler and the Nazi Party….another ‘feather’ in the party’s cap?
12. The Democrat Party is now running on full-blown anti-white racism.
13. It's the party of felons over law-abiding actual citizens
14. No shared values, not an American party…they oppose free speech, the second amendment, and the free practice of one’s religion.
15. Recent development prove the Democrats to be, as well, the party of rioters, arsonists, murderers, and anarchists.
Democrats: Bull Connor, George Wallace, Orval Faubus, Lester Maddox, Al Gore, Sr., Bill Clinton….all racists, all Democrats.
