I read the QUOTE above, under one of the JBS recruiting videos recruiting videos from the 1960's
I thought it was amazing so I reposted it here.
I choose not to post the link to the video because it's absolutely horrific.
I only made it about 20 minutes and that was because I stopped the video to scream every 2 minutes
🤣🤣🤣
Have a Lovely Day

Christofascists all, the worst of the racist right wing with a religious wing of fundamentalist christian theocrats.

I wonder what percentage of the Republican party is still considered moderate?
Donald Trump ran most of those people out

"The John Birch Society (JBS) is a free market extremist organization founded in 1958.
A 1961 Time Magazine profile mentions Koch family ties to the John Birch Society, called the most formidable of the extremist groups:
Under the umbrella of anti-Communism, many of the ultra-rightists pursue their own special goals and grind their own axes, ranging from respectable conservative politics and economics through segregation, anti-fluoridation, isolationism, higher tariffs and income tax repeal. . . . "The United Nations," says Wichita Oilman Fred Koch, "was conceived by Communists in Moscow during World War II." (Originations: The Ultras, Time Magazine, 1961)
The John Birch Society was founded in 1958. From 1961 to 1968, Charles Koch himself was an active JBS member. His father, Fred Koch, was an early member of their national council. The late Harry Bradley, of the Lynde and Harry Bradley Foundation, supported Robert Welch as a charter JBS member.
JBS spread anti-civil rights propaganda and literature through a network of front groups and front businesses. Charles Koch was active with his local JBS American Opinion Bookstore in Wichita, Kansas.
The founder of the John Birch Society, Robert Welch, wrote in 1961 that the Civil Rights Movement was a communist hoax:
The trouble in our southern states has been fomented almost entirely by the Communists for this purpose. It has been their plan, gradually carried out over a long period with meticulous cunning, to stir up such bitterness between whites and blacks in the South that small flames of civil disorder would inevitably result. They could then fan and coalesce these little flames into one great conflagration of civil war, in time, if the need arose. The whole slogan of "civil rights, " as used to make trouble in the South today, is an exact parallel to the slogan of "agrarian reform" which they used in China. (JBS Bluebook 1961, pg 24)
In his 1960 book, A Businessman Looks at Communism, Fred Koch observes that the colored man looms large in the communist plan to take over America. ...(more)

A little history for those who may not know
On June 10, a coalition of 27 Republicans and 44 Democrats ended the filibuster when the Senate voted 71 to 29 for cloture, thereby limiting further debate. This marked the first time in its history that the Senate voted to end debate on a civil rights bill. Nine days later, the Senate passed the most sweeping civil rights legislation in the nation's history. The House followed by accepting the Senate version on July 2. When President Johnson signed the bill into law that same day in a nationally televised broadcast, he was joined by civil rights leader Martin Luther King, Jr., who had been instrumental in leading the public mobilization efforts in favor of civil rights legislation. The Civil Rights Act of 1964 remains one of the most significant legislative achievements in American history.
