Reagan Tied The Republican Party To White Christians, Now They Are Trapped

[Correll]

“Mark my word, if and when these preachers get control of the [Republican] party, and they're sure trying to do so, it's going to be a terrible damn problem. Frankly, these people frighten me. Politics and governing demand compromise. But these Christians believe they are acting in the name of God, so they can't and won't compromise. I know, I've tried to deal with them.”

― Barry Goldwater

Barry Goldwater also thought that the 1964 civil rights bill was a bad idea. Do you think that the 1964 civil rights bill was a bad idea, because BARRY said so?

Agree with the prescience of his quote, disagree with his stance on the Civil Rights bill.

So, he's not an Authority we should defer to, just some guy that happened to agree with you on one thing.


So, why you sharing this with us?

It was an apropos quote based on the OP. You don’t agree with it. :shrug:

Some guy agrees with hte op. So? I disagree with the op. I am also some guy. We are at an impasse.


oh no, what to do.


What is this thread about, other than your anti-Christian bigotry?

Nice Straw man, please point out where I supported anti-Christian bigotry?

In your posts where you act as though being supported by a Christian group is a bad thing.


That's anti-Christian bigotry.


If some white guy just talked about the dems being supported by blacks, as though it was inherently bad, you would be able to see that that was racist.


Such things work BOTH WAYS.


I know that is an alien concept to you, but it is true.

Got it, so you got nothing but a fallacious opinion with the intent of picking a fight.

Dismissed

My, that was a quick tail-tucked retreat, even for you. And your attempt to hide that you're running was really lame.

Correll answered the question, and you responded with what was clearly a pre-chosen dismissal that had nothing to do with his post, just to try to give yourself an excuse to stop talking to someone who punctured your little balloon.

Really?

I don’t cavil with people who use straw men to create a false narrative. Posting a quote that was germane to the OP topic doesn’t translate into someone espousing “anti Christian bigotry”. That poster had nothing but a puerile insult because we were at a “impasse” (His words)

So yes, I dismiss peevish displays of hyperbole that attempt to serve as an actual argument.

THE op topic is presenting the support of the gop by white Christians as though it is inherently bad, for reasons that are not clearly presented.


That is anti-Christian bigotry.

Oh, so now it’s the topic. This back and forth started when you accused me of “anti-christian bigotry”.

Which is it?

Both, Mensa Boy. That was the OP's topic, and that was also what you said in response to the OP's topic.

Did you somehow think you couldn't both be racist religious bigots?

I am constantly amazed that liberals have such a low self esteem, that it does not bother them to have to pretend to be retarded to dodge a point.


I see this type of behavior all the time from them.


It is especially telling that this guy must be planning to WALLOW in his pretense of being retarded for DAYS, if not weeks, as this thread continues, and we keep slamming him with the same shit that has already completely crushed his argument(s).

You clearly have no idea what "straw man" means, other than it's something right-wingers keep saying to you all the time. Same goes for "false narrative".

And that whole "I didn't say that, I just quoted someone saying it, so I'm not responsible for the content" thing is even more lame than your cringing scuttle away from having your ass handed to you.

This is what happens when you have nothing to say of your own, and resort to trying to sound smart with other people words.

You are under the mistaken impression I care that much about a discussion in a political forum.

Thats priceless...

You care enough to be here. I'm sure there are plenty of other things you could be doing with your time. No pictures of naked ladies on your computer? No videos of cute cats playing? No best of collections of action scenes from your favorite movies?


Yet you choose to be here. So, you are getting something from it, and your claim otherwise is just a lie.

I just called you out on your racist shit, and you are the one that got nothing to defend yourself with.


Loser.

Thanks for proving my signature correct.

White flag accepted.

Wow, are you still trying to pretend you did something other than run like a scalded bitch? Give it up and just accept that you embarrassed yourself as a coward.

LOL.

Not at all, I can’t be bothered with people who just want to fire off false narratives and insults. Want to have a discussion, I’m all ears.

"LOL" You ran away because you got called on being a racist and a religious bigot, and you couldn't find someone else's words to quote to defend yourself.

And the more you try to scramble your way on top of your humiliating rout, the more obvious it becomes.

Not at all. Keep firing away. I think it’s excellent that my quote garnered such attention.

Nope. I explained what was wrong with your post, adn then pointed out that it was a form of bigotry in the slim hope that that would bother you, since libs are supposedly so anti-ism and phobes.


It is something I do. I have done it for several decades. I have yet to find a single lib that seemed at all bothered by the fact that their actions do not match their stated principles.


I have come to the conclusion that all liberals who talk about wacism or phobias, are just pretending to care about such things, only in so far as they can use them as weapons to smear and marginalize their enemies.

You stopped doing that, when you started trolling.

Irony....

Err, no, it's not. It is just the facts.


We were discussing the topic, and your posts on teh topic, and I crushed you, and you started playing troll games.

With a strawman fallacy. You fired off an insult and kept piling on. That’s not crushing anything but a decent discussion.

Reread Post 11.

By all means keep giving yourself props...

Nope. I explained what was wrong with your post, adn then pointed out that it was a form of bigotry in the slim hope that that would bother you, since libs are supposedly so anti-ism and phobes.


It is something I do. I have done it for several decades. I have yet to find a single lib that seemed at all bothered by the fact that their actions do not match their stated principles.


I have come to the conclusion that all liberals who talk about wacism or phobias, are just pretending to care about such things, only in so far as they can use them as weapons to smear and marginalize their enemies.

And here’s where you are incorrect.

First off, I’m not liberal. And if you said it to bother me it was meant as an insult. Let’s not play games of semantics here.

Secondly, I brought up the quote because Barry Goldwater foresaw what the OP was discussing. Speaking as a Catholic, I have no issue with anyone of faith. Note where I said I agreed with the prescience of his quote. Discussing how that was germane to the discussion was my intention, not to insult Christians.

Barry Goldwater also thought that the 1964 civil rights bill was a bad idea. Do you think that the 1964 civil rights bill was a bad idea, because BARRY said so?

Agree with the prescience of his quote, disagree with his stance on the Civil Rights bill.

So, he's not an Authority we should defer to, just some guy that happened to agree with you on one thing.


So, why you sharing this with us?

It was an apropos quote based on the OP. You don’t agree with it. :shrug:

Some guy agrees with hte op. So? I disagree with the op. I am also some guy. We are at an impasse.


oh no, what to do.


What is this thread about, other than your anti-Christian bigotry?

Nice Straw man, please point out where I supported anti-Christian bigotry?

In your posts where you act as though being supported by a Christian group is a bad thing.


That's anti-Christian bigotry.


If some white guy just talked about the dems being supported by blacks, as though it was inherently bad, you would be able to see that that was racist.


Such things work BOTH WAYS.


I know that is an alien concept to you, but it is true.

Got it, so you got nothing but a fallacious opinion with the intent of picking a fight.

Dismissed

My, that was a quick tail-tucked retreat, even for you. And your attempt to hide that you're running was really lame.

Correll answered the question, and you responded with what was clearly a pre-chosen dismissal that had nothing to do with his post, just to try to give yourself an excuse to stop talking to someone who punctured your little balloon.

Really?

I don’t cavil with people who use straw men to create a false narrative. Posting a quote that was germane to the OP topic doesn’t translate into someone espousing “anti Christian bigotry”. That poster had nothing but a puerile insult because we were at a “impasse” (His words)

So yes, I dismiss peevish displays of hyperbole that attempt to serve as an actual argument.

THE op topic is presenting the support of the gop by white Christians as though it is inherently bad, for reasons that are not clearly presented.


That is anti-Christian bigotry.

Oh, so now it’s the topic. This back and forth started when you accused me of “anti-christian bigotry”.

Which is it?

Both, Mensa Boy. That was the OP's topic, and that was also what you said in response to the OP's topic.

Did you somehow think you couldn't both be racist religious bigots?

More puerile insults. Another one who proves my sig correct.

Bless your heart.

GOP leaders and the conservative media ecosystem have spent the last few weeks focused on inflaming the culture wars. They’ve railed against the decision to stop publishing six Dr. Seuss books, falsely claiming that the childhood classics have fallen victim to liberal cancel culture, and complained about changes to the Potato Head line of toys.

Simultaneously, Republican state lawmakers have continued waging a war on democracy, passing new laws that would eliminate vote-by-mail and early voting programs that were popular with Democrats in 2020, especially among minority communities. According to the Brennan Center for Justice, Republican lawmakers have introduced more than 165 bills in 33 states to limit ballot access.

On the surface, these topics seem disconnected, but in reality, they share a crucial commonality that shapes today’s Republican Party — one that dates back to the 1984 Republican National Convention held in Dallas. It was there that Republicans cemented an alliance with evangelical White Protestants, in the process creating a demographic and generational time bomb that is now exploding in their face.

A dangerous cancel culture to the country, and themselves.

Huh?

The Republican Party was cool with White Christians long before Ronaldus Magnus changed his voter's registration from D to R.

― Barry Goldwater

Well, people like this use religion as both a weapon and as a way to play the persecuted victim.

"Cafeteria Christians" -- they use it when needed, and the rest of the time act quite the opposite.

There are people in most religions who give that religion a bad name, and they're an example.

I would disagree. I have been a social and economic conservative all my life. Today I don't even recognize what the social conservative movement has become. I would do everything I could to persuade a woman not to have a abortion but I will not jail them for it. I support Roe vs Wade because I have seen the extreme legislation that they are backing. The entire movement has been corrupted by Trump. There is no way you can say that you believe in the word of God and support Donald Trump. You are a fake Christian or fake whatever denomination you are with. Trump has corrupted every part of the conservative monement so they are more akin to the Nazis than they are Ronald Reagan.

You clearly have no idea what "straw man" means, other than it's something right-wingers keep saying to you all the time. Same goes for "false narrative".

This is what happens when you have nothing to say of your own, and resort to trying to sound smart with other people words.

You are under the mistaken impression I care that much about a discussion in a political forum.

Thats priceless...

You are under the mistaken impression that you're going to somehow save face.

Just a tip: if you really didn't care, you wouldn't have spent so many posts telling us about it.
