    It’s always fun to find political cartoons from the 60s and point out to them that if they were alive then they would be making the exact same arguments that the people who opposed MLK Jr were using.

        Yup that’s the one I was thinking of.

        And then keep reiterating “seriously you realize that you would have opposed MLK Jr if you were alive at the time right?”

        Enjoying the fireworks after asking them to explain the difference is the most societal value you’ll get out of a liberal.

          I love when they do that. They twist themselves into knots, usually implying that MLK Jr was “one of the good ones” (and today’s protestors aren’t).
