Equality. The Republicans are the party of racists and elites. LBJ and MLK allied, picking up the black vote. Nixon responded with the Southern Strategy, picking up the racist vote, and ending the progressive era. Trump became cheerleader for the racists, stoking the violence for his personal benefit. Recent events are a partial result.
So, yes, today’s left does represent the arrow of progress. So yes, the conservatives have to resort to the sky is green crazy logic to try to justify themselves. They are no less evil and no less wrong than conservatives always have been.
Every two or four generations there is a rebellion as those who have been denied equality demand a major step forward. This is one of those times. Always before, sometimes through non violence, sometime through other means, this has resulted in a step forward.
Those who believe in racism will resist. I am mildly disgusted but not surprised that you have proved yourself one of them.
That this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth.
