Confederate Statues

[CFM]

You seem to think that tearing down the Confederate monuments is to erase the Civil War. It's not. It's erasing the post-hoc legacy of the losers of that war. And that's what you should do to losers. Particularly losers who are also traitors.

You seem to think that tearing them down will change history.

Was the Confederacy a separate country?

 

[CFM]

Yeah, it was...then the parties switched bases during Civil Rights, and all the traitors and racists and Southern losers are Republican today.

You mean like Robert Byrd (D - WV)?

 

[Life is Golden]

Yeah, it was...then the parties switched bases during Civil Rights, and all the traitors and racists and Southern losers are Republican today.

We know who the lazy fucks wanting a handout are too.

 

[LV426]

Are you saying people denouncing their citizenship in the U.S. and establishing it somewhere else is treason?

Yep.

The number choosing to expatriate annually has been steadily rising since 2012. Leading up to the 2016 election, several countries promoted themselves as destinations for people wanting to leave the U.S. Do you consider them traitors?

They didn't declare war against the US. They just left. So let them go. I don't care. The Confederates seceded then murdered Americans in their quest to be a slave-owning nation. Those people in 2012 just left.

 

[LV426]

There you go bitching and whining when you don't get the answer you want, snowflake.

You fucking moron.

I was answering his question.

Just kill yourself. There's nothing of value you contribute to this board, and all you do is lie about yourself here.

I'm almost wishing we did meet up, just so I could doxx you and ruin your shitty life.

 

[Heff]

chinese cultural revolution (Mao) tore down artifacts from previous dynasties and Confusianism -in the name or riding the country of the '4 olds'

Pol Pot's Year Zero comes to mind as well.

 

[CFM]

OK, and? What is your point?

Stop blaming it for why blacks falls so far behind whites today. If it's not an issue, stop making it one.

 

[LV426]

you are a stoopid hothead / of course you don't understand

Explain it to me then. Confedersplain the virtue in the heritage of slavery, racism, and treason. Go ahead. Really would love to see a pro-treason argument that wasn't about Trump.

 

[Heff]

Yeah, it was...then the parties switched bases during Civil Rights, and all the traitors and racists and Southern losers are Republican today.

Then why the hell would you keep the name if it was the party of slavery, racism, white supremacy? Seems a little contradictory.

 

[LV426]

Historic heritage are places or objects of significance to people in regards to historical, archaeological

Right, but most of these monuments were constructed less than a century ago, and hold no historical value.

No one will forget the South lost the war by removing statues erected by racists long after the war had ended.

But you speak very vaguely and ambiguously about "heritage", so by all means, explain the heritage the statues embody or represent?

 

[Jack]

Why do we need these statues at all?

There was nothing of virtue...and they lost.

The only way these things deserve to be in a museum is if they're melted down and used in the building's foundation.

We have Civil War Battlefields, the Statues/Monuments could go there. I would bet there are Civil War Cemeteries? Museums are good places for historical items.
Americans fighting Americans, ... I'd say that is pretty unique.

Would you support tearing down Statues of Native Peoples fighting for their Way of Life (Hunter/Gatherers) because "they lost"?

 

[Mason Michaels]

Like I said take it out of the hands of the hotheads ( such as yourself) and get the true historical perspective
of each monument

Treason is Treason!That's the perspective of the Confederate Government

 

[CFM]

Yep.




They didn't declare war against the US. They just left. So let them go. I don't care. The Confederates seceded then murdered Americans in their quest to be a slave-owning nation. Those people in 2012 just left.

You don't know what you believe. I asked the same question in two different ways. In the first one you said someone denouncing their citizenship in the U.S. and establishing it somewhere else was treason. In the second question, which was the same one, you said you didn't care whether or not they left, "so let them go".

Are you still mad your ancestors were owned by white people, boy?

 

[anatta]

Explain it to me then. Confedersplain the virtue in the heritage of slavery, racism, and treason. Go ahead. Really would love to see a pro-treason argument that wasn't about Trump.

Have you ever been to Gettysburg? or seen Civil war monuments to battles or soldiers?
No. I'm not going to explain anything to you. It's like talking to a rock

 

[Mason Michaels]

and again..why historical commisions who can trace the heritage of each are better then political hotheads/mobs

You obviously are a Confederate sympathizer

 

[LV426]

Feel free to explain your position.

The statues weren't from the Civil War. They weren't built by Civil War veterans. They were erected by Southern racists for the purpose of memorializing their white supremacy long after the war had ended.

That's literally the reason given by the guy who erected the Silent Sam statue.

 

[LV426]

Why don't you get on trying to do that and let people know when you're going to do so unlike the cowards that do it in the dark, under cover.

Well, they could always hide under sheets like you.

 

[LV426]

BITE ME, Ghetto Trash scumbag. My father is from the South, as is my pastor and their family. And they are FAR from racist, you scumbag!

Your family tree looks like a stump.

 

[Mason Michaels]

You'd like to erase the history books too, like it never happened, but you can't.

The end goal you seek will never come to fruition.

Lame excuse,history books ,tell history.
Confederate monuments glorify treason ,and slavery

 

[CFM]

Just kill yourself.

If that's the result you want, be a man, step up, and try yourself, boy.

My life is perfectly fine. I have pussies like you foaming at the mouth like a rabid dog because you can't stand different opinions.
