And like that, America's history is scrubbed

[Cancel 2020.2]

You literally just said that the statues don't provide any historical context; you put that responsibility on the people viewing it. So it doesn't teach history at all.

 

[LV426]

the battles are of historical interest.
they are extant. you can go from there

So basically, Confederate statues are trolling.

No, you've offered an excuse, not an explanation.

A statue doesn't teach history, it glorifies and/or memorializes someone...and that is within the context of the architect, not history.




Yes, the monuments were erected for the purpose of furthering white supremacy. They serve as a tool of intimidation. That is their purpose.

I think we should commission black artists to sculpt the likeness of Floyd crushing the neck of Jefferson Davis and erect them everywhere these redneck swine need
an education.

Tel gnat if he wants to read a lionization of slavery there are still books setting forth that history and he can jerk off in private.

This tactic of yours isn't going to work any better than any of the others you've tried.

Maybe just bow out of the thread, since you can't really contribute anything meaningful.

In the public sphere, one generation should not dictate to another what is a symbol or what is sacred. If what was once sacred or lionized is now a symbol of hate
and oppression, the people should remove them by the same authority people deigned them worthy to erect.

Asinine brainwashed lunacy.



This is just like the left's idiotic hyperventilating over the made-up "OK" hand gesture controversy. Whatever the least intelligent human beings among us arbitrarily decide to associate with "white supremacy" must be criminalized and torn down, based on literally nothing other than ignorant demagogues deciding to assign nefarious motives or meanings to it. Democrats are Taliban-like Neanderthals throwing violent tantrums against inanimate objects for the thought crime of suggesting that there might be anything worth recognizing about anyone who isn't 100% morally perfect, according to the most utterly narrow-minded modern definition possible.

It's straight-up embarrassing being from the same country as these ridiculous unthinking degenerates. All things that contain any iota of moral imperfection according to the hilariously self-proclaimed enlightened moral superiors of the left must be purged from all society by the book burning Demagogue Party lynch mob.

It was a sad day when I taught people the word extant. Extant has become a snowball rocky and bullwinkle roll down the slope of posturing and illiteracy upon.

You need your participation trophy to glorify racists who lost a war they started.

People need to learn how to not be offended by symbols. This so called "symbol of hate" doesn't stop me from achievement. Matter of fact it motivates me to accomplish more.
