The left, which has been so eager to topple statues of Confederate generals, slave-owning founding fathers such as Thomas Jefferson, even Kate Smith who sang objectionable racist songs early in her career, now has a Martin Luther King, Jr. problem.

Maybe this is where Magic Johnson, Wilt Chamberlain, and Leonardo DiCaprio got their penchants for sexual conquest.

Or maybe it was John Holmes.

They kinda don’t because it will be ignored by the media.

It is VERY difficult fighting a party run media.

And it needs to be addressed one way or the other.

I just don’t know HOW you change media.

I think leftists buy media so much more because they have an agenda, an ugly one.

A conservative’s agenda is to provide for family and stay true to the constitution.

Wanting to CHANGE a country likely drives you to pursue media than just wanting a great country to stay the same.

But I could be completely wrong

I heard MLK was out on the balcony where he got shot because he had been in a row with Coretta over one of his affairs.

Where did you hear that?

Gotta feel sorry for Coretta. How could she stand it? It must’ve really galled her when they made him a martyr.

IIRC, MLK was a Republican.

DiCaprio is not a serial thousands of women guy.

He just has a rule he doesnt date anyone over 25. The several women he’s been with have lasted years, each.

It would be insane for him to marry or cohab with a modern woman.
