White southern working class Democrats broke away from the Democratic party in the late 60’s when the DP started supporting civil rights black Americans etc and other social issues. They ran their own candidate in George Wallace Dixiecrats, and were arguably absorbed into the Republican party when it appealed to their opposing stand on same social issues

It’s not necessarily a bad thing that we should own or not I don’t know

They mouthed support, but their voting record on civil rights issues tells a different story.

Remember LBJ's quotes "I'll have those niggers voting Democratic for 200 years."
And “These Negroes, they're getting pretty uppity these days and that's a problem for us since they've got something now they never had before, the political pull to back up their uppityness. Now we've got to do something about this, we've got to give them a little something, just enough to quiet them down, not enough to make a difference".

Bullshiite! George Wallis Democrats are now THE DEMOCRAT PARTY. They simply figured out how to keep blacks on the plantation by using welfare. Socially conscious Democrats became Republicans after Roe v Wade. Republicans have always been the party of the Christian Conscience in America. Remember Abraham Lincoln?
