::::Wait, the liberal brainwashing in public school history textbooks has been since the ''30s''? One thing certainly interesting was that when I had learned about the Stalwarts/civil service reform advocates in high school, we weren't told that the Stalwarts' support for the [[spoils system]] had to do with their support for civil rights, and I initially got the impression that those who advocated for the civil service system were the good guys. The history textbooks also excluded mentions of liberal racist Democrats like [[Hugo Black]], and of course promoted the [[Southern strategy]] narrative. —[[User:Liberaltears|<code><span style="color:black; background:#FFABAB">'''LT'''</span></code>]]'''''[[User:Liberaltears/mail|<sup>May D.C., his mother, and I.S. be all well!</sup>]]''''' Monday, 16:22, 4 January 2021 (EST)

::::In the Reconstruction era, many Republican [[carpetbagger]]s were opportunists, "to the victors go the spoils". They bought up Plantations for the back taxes, about a dime on the dollar, got involved in politics under the old system of handing out jobs to cronies, and in this case, many were Black. Civil service reform essentially was a second, non-violent Civil War that transformed the nation.
::::[[Jim Crow]] laws are as much intertwined with civil service reform and civil service reform advocates as it is with [[states rights]] and the 10th Amendment. [[User:RobSmith|RobS]]<sup>[[User talk:RobSmith|Free Kyle!]]</sup> 16:43, 4 January 2021 (EST)
