The use of “reddening” is in the context of “red state” meaning republican, not red in the context of a “red commie”
Yes. I read a while back that Big Media used the term ‘Red States’ to describe those who went Republican BECAUSE they didn’t want ‘Red’ associated with Democrats. Not surprising as they have always provided cover for Leftists.
Still 100% Orwellian and 100% wrong and patently offensive. Republicans come off as idiots embracing the term when we should fight like hell to REFUSE it be used to describe us. Blue is the international color of Conservative parties, and Red is the very epitome of leftist/totalitarian parties, Nazis, Communists, Socialists and “Democrats.” There’s only one definition of a “Red”, and it ain’t what the ultraleft jackasses of the media from 2000 onward claim it is.
