We all know that Red States have an ugly history of discrimination and that
this discrimination was based on conservative religious beliefs. It is for
this reason that we must acknowledge not just the Blue State Liberal, but all
liberals for their hard work in making America a free society that promotes
democracy and personal liberty. Red State Republicans have always made this
job more difficult than it needs to be.
Just imagine for a minute what life might be like without the Blue State
liberal who has consistently defended the rights of all individuals in the
face of an oppressive Red State religion and resulting hypocrisy.
In Red State, Blue State, author John Grevstad makes the following and
accurate claims:
If there were no Blue State liberals, slavery would still be legal in the
southern Red States.
If there were no Blue State liberals, there would have been no Civil Rights
Act of 1964.
If there were no Blue State liberals, women would not have the right to vote.
If there were no Blue State liberals, there would be no mandatory public
schooling of ALL of our children.
If there were no Blue State liberals, the gates of this country would have
been closed to immigrants a long time ago.
If there were no Blue State liberals, there would be no freedom of speech.
If there were no Blue State liberals, there would be no unions to defend
worker’s rights.
If there were no Blue State liberals, we would not be able to worship who and
how we choose.
If we look at the words and actions of the Red State religious conservative,
there is little doubt that all of this was true. Red States conservative did
not want to free slaves. Red State conservatives including George H.W. Bush
voted against the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Red State conservatives did not
work to extend the right to vote to all people. Red State politicians do not
hold unions as important.
The United States of American would be a lot different if it weren't for the
work of the Blue State Liberal. In Red State, Blue State, John Grevstad
aggressively states, "Red Staters who love whatever freedoms they have need
to thank the Blue State liberals. We have worked tirelessly to defend the
freedoms of all citizens. To that end, we certainly shouldn’t be taking any
Red State shit."
