And they were all Democrats.
No they weren't. You republicans male me laugh even harder. Your party is the party of racists. We all see this.
Fake Googly Image meme is still fake. You could put it in color and change the font, and it would still be fake.
The Klan was created by, specifically and in alpha order, (Maj) James Crowe, Calvin Jones, (Capt.) John B. Kennedy, (Capt) John Lester, (Maj) Frank O. McCord and Richard Reed, specifically on Christmas Eve/Christmas Day of 1865, specifically at 205 West Madison Street in Pulaski Tennessee, at the time the law office of Jones' father Thomas. These six were all twentysomething veterans of the CSA army and modeled their club out of boredom, after the example of Kuklos Adelphon, a popular college fraternity of the time. None of those six had any known political affiliations, nor did political parties exist in 1865 Tennessee anyway.
After it was commandeered by existing local vigilante "night riders" that Klan fizzled in less than a decade and would have been confined to the dustbin of history along with the dozens of other similar postwar vigilante groups that sprang up all over the South, but for a huckster named WIlliam J. "Colonel Joe" Simmons, who saw the public controversy over the Lost Cause film "Birth of a Nation" and figured he could make money by charging memberships if he re-created the Klan in the film into a real entity that people could join. This he did, specifically at Stone Mountain Georgia, specifically on the night of Thanksgiving 1915, laying out a bible, an unsheathed sword and a burning cross (emulating the film) and chartering the organization with the state of Georgia (later revoked). Simmons too had no known political affiliation.
Many more details can flesh this out further of course but that's not the weird part.
The weird part is that
you already know all this, having been schooled end-to-end on all of these details (by me) in past years in posts that still exist and can be linked. Yet here you are trotting out the same bullshit, expecting different results, KNOWING full well that it's going to be shot down, as I just did.
So here's a mythology you know full well to be fake, yet here you are plugging it like a bad Pat Boone record.
Doesn't speak real highly of your intelligence does it.
