MLK being insulted by comparison again.

MLK and Ronald Reagan are used by more people when they are trying to denigrate current conservatives and republicans than any other two people.

They always use The Great One (Reagan) when they say “there was a compromising president who wasn’t extreme like Trump...blah blah)

MLK is used only when handy and his real message is ignored.

Disgusting.

Whereas conservatives celebrate an imaginary MLK.

Conservatives cherry pick some words from one of MLK's speeches, pretend it summarizes all of King's philosophy, then further imagine that MLK would have froze in time. That the MLK of 2020 would remain the MLK of 1965.

Had MLK lived, he would likely have moved left with other "progressives." He would have supported Obama, BLM, slave reparations, defund the police, AOC, and "From the River to the Sea."

Its funny they describe Reagan that way.....NOW. I remember what they said when Reagan was around....”stupid cowboy”....”warmonger”....”Ronnie Ray Gun” (boy, wasn’t that one clever), etc
