In Homerworld all conservatives and Republicans are racist. That there is no evidence to support this just goes to show that they are also deceitful. But on the bright side, there's no thinking required in Homerworld, just a knee free to jerk to the left.
Sure, as long as you forget what conservatives set up in the 1950's to deal with equality---it was called Separate but Equal. Southern conservatives thought it was an excellent way to deal with "them".....of course, it didn't work for long.
And please, spare me "It was those darned Democrats who instituted that" refrain. If that's all you have or understand about Southern politics, you don't understand much about the South or its history.
Myself, lived in the South (mostly GA) from the early 1950's. I remember quite well the White Only and Colored Only signs everywhere, on water fountains, entrances to stores (if the door wasn't labeled Colored Only, a black better not use it!), everywhere.
And it's that same attitude, while finally slowly fizzling out down here, is still quite prevalent throughout the South among the older generations and does permeate more than a little of the younger gens---those under 40.
McCain's son's wife....nice looking woman. Glad to see some of the established conservatives are opening their minds to see something else than the us vs. them attitude that so permeates the South in some things. And yes, in private amongst the "oldsters"----the conservative Dem/Repubs down here in the south----his son's marriage isn't causing major outcrys (McCain was pretty much written off after his failed presidential bid), but it is being talked about quite negatively.
And to all the "enlightened" Southerners here, one question. Would you buy a house in an all black neighborhood today?
