No he wouldn't. Anything you take as "conservative" in his rhetoric ("He mentions God!") would be paradigm shifted to reflect contemporary far-left ideology. Because he was a communist. His organization was run and his speeches were written by a communist. MLK was not a conservative and he was never a Republican.

If MLK were alive today, he'd be baying about "white supremacism", inveighing against the fascism of MAGA and fully participating in cancel culture. While leading BLM riots.

He'd be appealing to have you removed from social media. He'd be at no risk of himself being removed.

No he wouldn't.

He was marginalized in the time because he was an enemy of the political establishment, just like trump.

he'd be baying about "white supremacism"

HE talked about people being equal, but we know that in his time he talked about "the white moderate" who he would actually be talking about today, because they still exist. People on the left who claim to be for progress, but say "now is not the time for change" when people want to improve their life situations through politics.

"MLK would have recognized the Capitol riot as the white supremacy"

This is what some dumbass mainstream writers are saying, sounds kinda like your opinion, too.

inveighing against the fascism of MAGa

Uhm, its pretty obvious you havent read a single thing about king, this is a combination of fakelib bullshit and rightwing fearmongering about da scary black mahn.

"Black supremacy is as dangerous as white supremacy... god is not interested merely in the freedom of black men and brown men and yellow men, "... god is interested in the freedom of the whole human race

Go on...

He'd be appealing to have you removed from social media.

"...and the creation of a society where all men will live together as brothers"

😂

He'd be at no risk of himself being removed.

🤔🤔🤔

MLK wasn't marginalized. MLK was upheld by the establishment.

Since you take the left at their word for what they say in speeches, you have no cause to suggest that Trump is marginalized in the present by the establishment:

Biden reached out to those voters who supported President Donald Trump, telling the crowd of supporters: “They are not our enemies. They’re Americans.”

“This is the time to heal in America,” he said.

“I will work to be a president who seeks not to divide but unify. I won’t see red states and blue states, I will always see the United States.”

These strategically posed sentiments in MLK's speeches were written by a communist named Stanley Levinson, who quit the CPUSA to run King's organization.

Just as the far-left shot of the 60s was to gently persuade the White majority to relinquish power via appeals to their consciences, a time-transposed MLK would be today doing BLM shit.

People to your left and right are telling you you're wrong because you're wrong.
