    This is the cover image from an innocuous-seeming “conservative” pamphlet published in 1963. It was produced, however, by some of the nation’s leading racists and segregationists in their efforts to recruit other “conservatives” to their cause.pic.twitter.com/yQOm6WgEBr

        Here’s the Group Research report on the group behind this pamphlet. This is a textbook example of how seemingly “race neutral” rhetoric about “small government” was deployed by far right folks who explicitly sought to defend and entrench white supremacy.pic.twitter.com/Nv9cd255N7

        This is the James Kilpatrick who would go on to be the “conservative” side on 60 Minutes Point/Counterpoint in the 70s. Note also the Liberty Lobby/National Review overlap here.pic.twitter.com/g5cjoiWWNm

        I'd forgotten that James J. Kilpatrick, one of Virginia's most staunch segregationists in the 1960s, had a regular gig on 60 Minutes in the 1970s playing the role of the "conservative" in their point/counterpoint segment. This one from 1978 is a trip. https://youtu.be/cESACuuh6kM

        Wondering if the phrase had arisen from conservative resistance to treating gay people fairly and equally. But maybe it has long been a stock phrase in the conservative toolbox.

        It’s Im kind of a mix metaphor, no? Unless the government is checking for streptococcus, it’s a very odd place for them look. And if they are looking for strep, well I’m happy to oblige. I don’t like strep.
