Navy Renaming Ships That Were Named For Racists

[caelric]

If the ship is named after a Democrat, why are you on here whining about changing the ship's name?

.... Because he was a southern, white racist conservative from rural Mississippi who was effusively praised by Ronald Reagan when he retired. He was replaced by southern, white racist conservative Trent Lott (R-MS), who was himself forced to resign in disgrace as Republican Senate Majority Leader ... because of his praise for -- you guessed it -- segregationist Democrat-turned-Republican Strom Thurmond.

Oh, look, ashy-poo is trying to participate in a big boy and big girl conversation. It's so cute when you do that, ashy-poo.

Ahh.. judging from your response you realized you made an uh-oh. LOL.

Except calling you out on your inability to make a substantive reply doesn't constitute an "uh-oh." Better luck coming up with a substantive reply next time.

I don't think the OP actually read the article before he got outraged. It was the Navy who called for a report and decided to make this change. Not democrats.

I don't think you actually read anything I wrote, because if you did, you would be able to point to exactly where the outrage was. Protip: there was none. I am neutral about renaming these ships.

What I was using it for was to point out that one of the most racist Senators of the late 20th century was one of the ones that is possibly being renamed. And he's a Democrat, the party of racists, now and then.

But you're backlash, so I don't expect even the basic level of reading comprehension from you.

There's a reason southern, white rural conservatives are the ones who display the Confederate flag, and oppose the removal of Confederate imagery. It's their legacy. And they, in 2021, vote solidly Republican. Either the leftovers of the Confederacy, and segregation, are the legacy of Democrats and thus Democrats can remove them, or in reality, they were the legacy of southern, white rural conservatives who used to vote Democrat, and in 2021, they're southern, white rural conservative Republicans opposing the dismantling of their racist legacy.

All but one Confederate state went Republican in 2016, and all but two in 2020. The south is the bedrock of the modern-day GOP. Your REE!ing about that fact can't change reality. Your mental gymnastics aren't able to warp and twist reality to suit your delusions, no matter how many times you try to play the shell game to hide the racism of southern, white rural conservatives.

You still don't get what you wrote and how you contradicted yourself. LOL.. It's hilarious to see you keep copy/pasting the same thing over and over.. when it's completely not the point.

God you are good for a laugh.

If you could demonstrate how I supposedly contradicted myself, you would have. Notably, despite being challenged, you haven't. Several times in a row.

Spoiler Alert: There's a reason you didn't.

The reason I don't is because I enjoy your ignorant floundering. It's pretty obvious, but that's what makes it so funny.

Spoiler Alert: You're entertainment for me. I don't do what you want, you do what I want.

Poor little ashy-poo is rather cute when he tries to act like a big girl. Big boy. Big something.

Fourth consecutive demonstration that Shaps couldn't substantiate his position.

Very convincing.

Very convincing.

LOL.. training you with Pavlovian precision. Yes indeed.

ROFL. You're trying so hard. Thank you. Sincerely, thank you.
