Why not? That's exactly what liberals do today regarding the southern states...that their past is perfectly indicative of the present. That rationale cuts both ways.

The southern states are judged based on their current actions. Notice how DSF won't start a thread where this can be fully discussed? Mass ignore might be the best approach if he just wants to troll.

The modern south is mixed, but the difference is that there's still a significant strain of racism in the south that's tolerated and sometimes even endorsed by its white community (see: the opposition to removing Confederate statues). I'd like to see you cite any significant strain of racism among modern Democrats that isn't immediately condemned. The south is getting better; but the reality is that it's considerably more problematic than the Democrats.

Besides, I'm still trying to grapple with how you can keep parroting the false "modern Democrats are racist" narrative when this is the party that successfully elected a two-term black president and has legendary civil rights leaders (like John Lewis) actively serving in office. Not that there aren't non-white Republicans, but it's definitely not the party you choose if you value cultural diversity and acceptance.

Plastic bottles will soon be appearing alongside cod and haddock on chip shop menus, it is hoped. About 10% of the volume of each fish haul caught is plastic waste.

This turtle is having fun playing in discarded plastic netting which prevents it from reaching the surface and breathing. A loggerhead turtle trapped in a drifting abandoned net, Mediterranean Sea.
