harm94 is basically an annoying twelve y/o i know in about a year when he discovers catchphrases and starts trying to use them to argue politics
how long are you going to keep Annoying Orangeeting "would you support the kool kids klub in ten years if they became a civil rights group" as if it's your secret weapon, it's one of the least coherent points in this topic
if members of the kool kids klub wanted to become a civil rights group, i imagine they'd disband and reform, because being part of the group really has no power unless the group is in unison, and in fact, it'd be very harmful
this is the loving opposite of a political party
political parties have a much harder time "disbanding and reforming" because when there are only a few major political parties you generally need to be in one of them in order to gain any recognition
"but why didn't they just call themselves something different?" they did, they were agrarian democrats as opposed to the Bourbon Democrats, who were the aforementioned "big bad democrats". the bourbon democrats were
defeated by the agrarian democrats, or 'new deal liberals', who then proceeded to institute policies that allowed the demands of civil rights movements to be translated into law.
are you noticing the point here
a political party is nothing like an activist organization because while you can have dissenting opinions and even completely contradictory or
opposite opinions in a political party, you can't get that stuff in an organization. a political party is just a tool a bunch of politicians use to try to get elected.
a political party is just a tool a bunch of politicians use to try to get elected.(if you even try to make an brown townogy starting with "an organization is just a tool..." i'll assault you)
you can run republican whether you do or don't support drugs, whether you support or hate regulating marriage, or whether you support or are adverse to defense spending. it really doesn't matter. it could impact your chance of winning, so it may not be SMART to run republican under those circumstances, just as it may not be SMART to
be a republican if you're pro-choice, pro-drugs, or pro-affirmative-action. guess what it depends on?
it depends on what the opinion of the majority of the politicians in that political party iswell, guess if i want to support civil rights, i'd best stay away from the party that's dominated by all those tribal big-business solid south
bourbon democrats and head to the-
wait, what's that, you say? those democrats don't exist anymore, the party's been taken over by liberals, and all of their supporters switched to the conservative republican party following a modern-era republican movement to try to appeal to southern racism?
well GOLLY GEE lookit that guess i'd better pip on over to the democratic party,
home of the liberals and the civil rights movementthere is no "stigma" attached to the democratic party because none of the democrats who held that point of view exist anymore. the democratic party was never anything but a tent that they held themselves under to keep inside the rain of votes, and now a different group of people are doing so, with different views. the "biggest bully" is dead, and the people protesting bullying happen to be wearing the same color shirt he wore. there is no amount of bullstuff you can say that could change that, and trying to compare an organization to something so opportunistic and meaningless as a political party makes your kool kids klub brown townogy the stupidest brown townogy i've heard today.
(off-rant but on-topic, this is the best brown townogy i've heard today:
asking for straight pride is like asking for able-bodied parking spaces)
and finally, just to hopefully put a nail in the coffin of the credibility of that brown townogy:
if the kool kids klub, for some reason, completely changed their points of view and the points of view of all their members, but decided to keep calling themselves the kool kids klub for some reason, like, let's say out of spite for the old kool kids klub, all like "ha ha we're stealing your name & your organization and using it for the exact opposite of what your tribal views were", and you knew this for a
fact, and also knew that they were the most effective civil rights group in the U.S.A... what
possible reason would you have not to support them? what
possible reason would you have to believe that they would not do a good job of protecting the rights of those who are discriminated against? and before you say "but i DON'T KNOW these things for a fact about the democratic party!" that's because you are ignorant and know nothing about politics.
tl;dr can we please stop talking about harm's amazing political ignorance and go back to mocking people who get upset over gay rights
