Apparently, you have failed to realize that you have no facts - you have simply put forth your opinions (and we all know about opinions, don't we?).Ludicrious ... but then, just like stupid opinions, everyone is allowed their own perversion of history.
Lacking any substantive response, you choose to resort to a sophomoric little gainsay word "ludicrous"?
How childish.
Well now you just point out to the class anything I posted up there that is inaccurate, Spunkles.
Aaaaand GO.
You're the one who is trying to pervert history - not to mention historical context.
Frankly, we can get better from the local junior high.
You're right ---- "ludicrious" DOES seem to be exactly the right word.
So you have no refutation at all. You concede my facts, yet want to cry the blues because you didn't have them.
What a surprise that is.
The closest you came was your pathetic attempt to somehow correlate the rise of the KKK with the names of different army forts - a damn poor attempt, by the way.
ALL of this happened at the same time ---- the Lost Cause movement....... the spike in lynchings..... the orgy of Jim Crow laws..... "The Clansman" novel.... "The Clansman" play"..... "The Clansman" movie (renamed "Birth of a Nation")... the re-founding of the Ku Klux Klan which had been dead over 40 years..... mass segregation of public facilities including schools, restaurants, even bathrooms and water fountains..... . the erection of hundreds of statues, monuments and plaques by the UDC including one commemorating the original founding of the Klan, the very same statues and monuments deliberately erected in public places and adjacent to government buildings for their propaganda value, which is exactly why they're under review right now .... blackface minstrel shows begetting "Amos 'n' Andy" and "Steppinfetchit" ..... a spike in devastating race riots..... souvenir postcards and body parts bought and sold from these ongoing lynchings.... Klan-elected state and local officials ..... the banning of blacks from baseball...... segregation of the government and military ...... and the naming of these military bases I listed, which includes Fort Gordon, named after the reputed head of the Georgia Klan in its postwar iteration.
THERE is your revisionist history. It's already been here and gone, and left its lingering effects. Your job now is to recognize and acknowlege it.
Or, you can just post "ludicrous" and walk away in a huff going That's up to you. All depends whether you can handle it.
Your revisionist history is that Senator and Governor Gordon founded the Klan, there is only one known member of the Klan to serve in the Senate and that was Exalted Cyclops Robert Byrd the mentor of Hillary Clinton.
