Imagine if Republicans put half as much energy into _actually_ defending civil rights as they spend pushing the dumb talking point that they were _once_ the party of civil rights.https://twitter.com/charliekirk11/status/1056379182412902400 …

The point of these arguments is that they weren’t racist then so as a reward for being good tgen they get to be racist now.

Is that the point? I've always assumed they're just trying to confuse people rather than advance any coherent message.

No, I honestly think these conservatives see not being racist as a burden ("Can we do away with affirmative action yet, it's been X years?") and that if you or your ancestors were good in the past you don't have to bear the burden in the present and can be "normal," i.e. racist.
