The platform is the same
- Warnings that Islamic influence in America is a threat to national security.
- Defamation of American citizens of different races as "unpatriotic" for defending their communities.
- Assertion that white males are routinely discriminated against.
- Characterization of "illegal" immigration as an "invasion" and an assertion that "illegal" people have no rights.
- An belief that any gun control legislation is a risk to Americans.
- A belief that America is a Christian nation that should be run on Christian principles.
- Fear that gay marriage will destroy society.
Give me one significant difference in rhetoric or in policy between a conservative Republican and a KKK member.
To hear conservatives try to disavow "racists"... at the same time they are using the very same rhetoric to reach the very same goals.. this is a little hard to accept.
The KKK platform is NOT the same.
some is yes, some is not. If you look at
their platform, they even have some of the liberal forwarded ideas.
What you are doing is trying to equate Republican being equal to KKK and that's just stupid. I can't believe for an instant that you actually are stupid enough to believe that becasue some of the words they use are the same that they have the same beliefs. Are you stupid enough to believe that?
But, you aksed for "one significant difference in rhetoric or in policy between a conservative Republican and a KKK member."
I will list a few for you...
-The recognition that America was founded as a White nation.
-Stop all Foreign Aid Immediately
-Cut off trade with countries that refuse to establish strict environmental laws.
-Abolish ALL discriminatory affirmative action programs
-Actively promote love and appreciation of our unique European (White) culture
-Outlaw the purchase of American property and industry by foreign corporations and investors.
-Repeal the Federal Reserve Act.
-We support a national law against the practice of homosexuality
-We support the voluntary repatriation of everyone not satisfied with living under White Christian rules of conduct back to the native lands of their people
Now, which of those would be a plank in the Republican platform?
Now, quit being an idiot with this crap.
