A Louisiana man said during a state Senate redistricting hearing that MAGA was “the last breath of the Confederacy.”
In an emotional speech on Monday, the resident who identified himself as Marshawn said he had “zero doubt” that Republicans in the state would pass a map that erased majority-Black districts.
“If y’all can give us less than zero seats, you would do it. Y’all do this under the orders of somebody that said the Civil Rights Act was harm for the white people, that it caused reverse racism,” he explained. “RFK said that Black children are overfilled on antidepressants and that they need to be re-parented on different forms, all of them. Pete Hegseth constantly brings Doug Wilson to the Pentagon to give a prayer service. Doug Wilson is the same pastor that said that slave owners were on strong spiritual ground.”
Marshawn argued that the only reason Republicans supported redistricting is that President Donald Trump demanded it.
“So as far as I’m concerned, if you here as one of these Trump Republicans, you already showed us who you are. You showed us what you want to do. And I believe the country as a whole is rebuking your party. Y’all are in a death spiral. That’s why you have to redistrict,” he observed. “That’s why y’all have to cheat. That’s why Trump got to go to Texas and say he entitled to five more seats. It’s because y’all know what y’all doing is abhorrent.”
“But the beautiful thing is, the children that y’all have made, and the people that’s younger than y’all don’t support none of this racism that y’all want,” the man continued. “The MAGA party is the last breath of the Confederacy, and I’ll be happy to see millennials and Gen Z. bury y’all. There will be no more of your party. The midterms gonna come, y’all gonna get wiped out.”
The man concluded by asserting that “Trump gonna get dragged out of the White House, and I’m gonna love every second of it.”
“Because y’all loved every second of the suffering that he calls to everybody in this country. And worldwide, we starve in Cuba. We bomb Nigeria. We holding Zimbabwe and Zambia hostage for their minerals. We don’t want to give them AIDS support,” he added. “The pro-lifers that say all life is special, y’all letting kids die of AIDS. What part of your Bible say that? Point out the scripture. I think everybody would love to see it. And we would love to see y’all in the midterms.”
get this man on a goddamn ballot somewhere.
Really? The confederacy? What an exaggeration.
Just because they weakened the union, and reinterpreted the law to discriminate based race, and argue in favor of segregation & denaturalisation, and fly confederate flags, and want to own black people; that doesn’t mean that they’re…
You know what… Nevermind.
Calling them the last breath is a bit optimistic
Yeah his statement contained a few moments of optimism and I wish I had the same view.

I hope my generation (millennial) lives up to this man’s hopes for us. It sucks that we have to wait even that long.
Based on how many young people are being indoctrinated into believing fascist propaganda on TikTok, I’m not hopeful.
Good thing the millennials are going to be the ones in power soon enough
Ha! You think MAGA is the last breath? No, MAGA is basically these fascists hyperventilating into a bag. They are anywhere from 25-50% of the population.
Hopefully, but Western European supremacy has been around since the days of Rome so I’m not that optimistic. 🥲
But Rome wanted to Borg you and call you Roman.
Haven’t American vassals and anyone in their sphere of influence become Americanized/Westernised as well to different degrees? Japan, SK and the UK, for instance, certainly have. I’ve even heard right wingers in France use American talking points like “woke”, and French people don’t speak English on average either, lol. In the end, I guess their version is submitting to “liberal democracy” or whatever.
