If Reparations are ever Paid to Blacks for being Descendents of Slaves, Can we be Sure that none of the Payments Will Ever go to . . .

[Bad Bob]

But there is plenty of Russian influence among Republicans..

Only because their Orange Daddy is influenced by Putin.

 

[Lockback]

Your paranoia about me is unnecessary since it won't be me. I don't even know where you sleep.

It will be someone close to you. Someone who wants to ease your pain...and theirs.

Your fantasies prove exactly what I've thought about you from the start.

 

[Bad Bob]

See how clever I am, creep?
Now do something useful ... go play in traffic or something.

One day your food will taste funny and you'll become very, very sleepy.

Not a fantasy. Predictable. People can only take living with a violent psycho for so long before they will do something about it.

$20 says you don't prepare your own food or medications.

 

[late]

Our avocados and tomatoes come from our orchards and gardens. We have great lightly toasted avocado, bacon, and tomato sandwiches.

I don't allow any of the livestock on the property to be butchered for the table.

Ever hear of Blast Sandwiches?

Bacon, lettuce, avocado, smoked salmon, tomato..

 

[Lockback]

One day your food will taste funny and you'll become very, very sleepy.

I'm already sleep.
I'm so goddam bored with your stupid attempt to be scary or something.
It's just stupid.
It's not working. Go the F away and settle down with your pet iguana or whatever.

You owe me $20, asshole.
I only take a couple of blood pressure meds and my wife does most but not all of the cooking.
I grilled some fantastic pork chops tonight.

Send me your address and I'll mail it to your facility.

His "wife" will help him sleep. A little fentanyl is all it takes.

I love pork chops and pork loin!

 

[Seymour Flops]

Why do you repubicans continue lying about this?

This is about government policies, and those policies were made by both parties.

That's the best you can do?

 

[jacksonlamb]

That's the best you can do?

It's the truth. Why do you deny it?

 

[Lockback]

His "wife" will help him sleep. A little fentanyl is all it takes.

I love pork chops and pork loin!

If I were a Moderator here - and I've been a Moderator at many message boards over the years, ranging from guns to motorcycles - I'd ban your ass so fast you wouldn't know what hit you.
You deserve to be banned.

The lies of a psycho.

 

[jacksonlamb]

The lies of a psycho.

Take you fentanyl and calm down.

 

[IM2]

That's the best you can do?

It is all I need to do.

Republicans really need to stop thinking you can tell us this lie.

The Lily-White Movement​

The Lily-White Movement was an anti-Black political faction within the Republican Party in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, primarily active in the Southern United States. It emerged as a backlash against the political and socioeconomic gains African Americans had made during Reconstruction, following the abolition of slavery by the Thirteenth Amendment and the extension of voting rights to Black men in 1867.

Origins and Context​

After the Civil War, Southern states enacted Black Codes to restrict Black rights, but the Civil Rights Act of 1866 and the Freedmen’s Bureau helped secure voting rights for freedmen. Black leaders, often through Union Leagues and the biracial “Black-and-Tan” faction, organized African Americans as a key voting bloc within the Republican Party. This biracial coalition gave Republicans significant influence in the South during Reconstruction.

By the 1870s, conservative white Republicans—often aligned with Democrats—began pushing to remove Black leaders from party leadership and to reconstitute the party as a racially homogeneous organization. The term “lily-white” was coined in 1888 by Texas Republican leader Norris Wright Cuney to describe these efforts, which included expelling Black delegates and inciting riots to divide the party.

Goals and Tactics​

The Lily-White Movement aimed to:

• Purge African Americans from Republican leadership roles.
• Reclaim white voters who had shifted to the Democratic Party.
• Rebrand the Republican Party as a conservative, white-dominated alternative to the Democratic Party’s “party of the Negro” image

They often worked in counties with fewer Black residents, where white conservative Republicans could consolidate power. Tactics included purging Black members, intimidating Black leaders, and aligning with Democrats to pass disenfranchisement laws.

Spread and Impact​

The movement began in Texas in the 1870s under leaders like Edmund J. Davis, but intensified after Cuney’s rise to national committeeman in 1884. By the early 1900s, Lily-White factions had taken control in states such as Virginia, North Carolina, and Alabama. Their success helped Republicans regain electoral viability in the South, but at the cost of marginalizing Black Republicans until the civil rights era

Legacy​

The Lily-White Movement was a key factor in the Redemption of the South, where Democrats regained control of state governments. It reflected the broader struggle over racial politics in the post-Reconstruction era and contributed to the long-term disenfranchisement of African Americans in the South.

 

[Seymour Flops]

It's the truth. Why do you deny it?

Do I deny that both Democrats and Republicans fought to preserve slavery and when defeated, formed the Ku Klux Klan? Yes.

Do I deny that both Democrat and Republican presidents praised the film "Birth of a Nation" that glorified the Ku Klux Klan? Yes.

Do I deny that both a Democrat and Republican governor of Arkansas tried to use the National Guard to block black students from attending school with white students and then a president who was both Republican and Democrat federalized the National Guard to protect those students? Yes.

Oh, yeah. The famous "Lilly-white Movement" that we've all heard so much about.
