Q, this meme doesn't check out. Everyone knows that the parties just switched names and platforms in the middle of the last century.

"At any point in history, did the two major U.S. political parties - Democrats and Republicans -switch platforms?"

FDR cemented the party platform switch when he was elected as a Democrat in 1932 and put together the New Deal voting coalition, which fell apart in the aftermath of the Civil Rights movement and Nixon's Southern Strategy from 1964-1972. You can read more about the nuances and particulars of the New Deal realignment on black voters, for example, here on the House of Representatives' official website.

Or you could just look at voting maps in 1950 vs 1970 Democrat and Republican switched North vs South.
