the conservative movement's roots is an alliance of business interests livid about the new deal, southern racists livid about the civil rights movement, and church ladies livid about the sexual revolution. scotus will continue unabated until they've rolled all those back (or democrats stop them)

As someone in NOLA, can’t help noticing many of today’s “southern racists” appear to be remarkably close to the Canadian border. 60s civil rights activists were unpopular nationally. 2nd wave kkk was also a national phenomenon. My point: it’s long been bigger and less contained than we admit.

oh sure racists are not confined to the south, but it's the electoral voting bloc that formed the base of power for the party. breaking the dem "solid south" and turning it into a stronghold for the GOP
