About a week ago I addressed the overtly racist history of the Democratic Party in my OP "Real Racism: A History of the Democratic Party." They have a racist and sexist past that has been relegated to the forgotten recesses of their political minds. Today, they contend vehemently that they no longer espouse those ideals. They further posit that instead of being what they were as recently as 50 years ago, that somehow that platform has attached itself to today's Republican Party.
I'm here to tell you that they are dead wrong. I was always told as a child growing into my teenage years, that you cannot deny your nature. Here, we have a party who seems to go against the grain of their past mistakes and somehow has convinced our nation that they stand for what is right. Somehow, they have convinced themselves that they are the champions of morality. I was told a story once, and I'm probably sure you've heard it:
A Fox was on his way home after a hunt, he came across the bank of a river and proceeded to cross, but before he stepped into the water, a Scorpion begged him not to go. The Scorpion wished to cross the river, too. The Scorpion asked the Fox, "I need a ride across the river, would you be so kind as to let me climb atop your back so we can cross the river, together?" The Fox replied, "I know you and your kind, for you have poison in that tail of yours! Why should I trust you? You are dangerous! What will stop you from stinging me and killing us both as we cross?"
In return the Scorpion answered, "If I do that, we will both drown! Trust me!" So the Fox consented, and the Scorpion climbed atop his back. They began to cross the river, and halfway through, the Scorpion stung the Fox. Stunned and aghast, with poison paralyzing his body wailed, "Why?! I thought you wanted to cross the river, same as I? You lied!" As they both floated away to their doom, the Scorpion replied, "I did no such thing. For you see, it was my nature."
So, as we learn from this fable, a party same as an animal, cannot reject its true nature. In America today the Democrats champion gender equality and racial equality, and as a result, they have been very successful with that premise; winning two consecutive presidential elections. However, in keeping with their past, they continue to espouse the same ideals of their progenitors.
As we all know, racism has been a demon that us as a collective nation could not and have not been able to exorcise. We have a history of it, most of which was brought on by those who now claim to be the party of equality. Today, under the false guise of social justice, they have lain down false narratives and unfair stereotypes of the people they say they protect.
With Black people, and Black women or Men who are registered Democrats, they have been indoctrinated with the idea that anyone who is against them or their so-called "progress" is either racist or misogynistic. If they happen to be Republicans in today's America, they are called a host of names, portrayed as a stain on society and as you can guess, are treated as the negroes of old. The racism begins to seep out of the Democrat who sees one of their major voting demographics belonging to the other side. It cant be helped, it is their true nature, in essence what the political genes of their party have programmed them to be.
You can look to the more obvious examples of Democratic racism; as Mia Love, Herman Cain and Allen West were (and still are) persecuted for being on the "wrong side" of the political spectrum. As for the misogynistic nature of Democrats, you need only to look to the example of Sarah Palin. We all know her, she was made famous in the 2007-08 election cycle when Senator/Republican Presidential Nominee John McCain tabbed her for the Vice Presidential ticket.
No sooner did she make her introduction to politics when she began to sustain ruthless and uncalled for attacks from the Left leaning main stream media. She began having her essence as a woman questioned by Democrats who could not understand why a woman would ever be inclined to believe in her own independence, as opposed to the Democratic stereotype of her reliance on government to espouse here ideals. She and her family continue to be attacked to this day, all for want of not being a Democrat.
Whenever a Democrat tells you they fight for equality among gender and race, remind them of their past, and then remind them that they still continue to carry on the racist and misogynistic legacy of those that came before them, whether or not they recognize it. If they deny it, once again, remind them of where they came from.
I am a Conservative Libertarian, and by all rights and means I am far from stupid. The real Democrat is the one that tells you that black men and women cannot win without the government's help, and that any other woman cannot move forward in this world... unless big brother is there to help. The real Democrat reverts to his true nature when, all of a sudden, these types of people begin thinking for themselves. Their true nature is what it has always been, it will never change.
Democrats can call me whatever they like, issue what slurs at me as they will; but they cannot change history, and by all means, cannot deny their very nature.
