Where Do Confederate Monuments Go After They Come Down?

BLACK LIVES MATTER.

That's literally asking for them to be protected.

FFS, if you're going to spam the board, at least don't be so stupid about it.

BLM is "literally" asking for whom or what to be protected?

You are the one who is spamming. That accusation is one of desperation.
There is a difference between being offended and being intimidated.
Are black people afraid to visit Gettysburg because of statues? That is your condescending claim.

More bullshit about forgetting who lost the Civil War. Repetition of a false premise shows just how weak it is.

Well, you say we have to keep the monuments "to remember"...or something.

Is your memory so bad that you can't remember who lost the Civil War without the monuments? Is that what you're worried about people forgetting?

Ahhh....there it is, the racist card. Now we're racist.
I have to start dinner. I'd say it was "real," but it hasn't been.
Your accusations are falling on deaf ears. I am not racist, never
was, never will be. I just despise idiots, and an idiot you are.

What history will be forgotten if the monuments to Confederates are removed?

No, there isn't.

You can offend and intimidate someone at the same time.

Are you afraid you'll forget who lost the Civil War if Confederate monuments are removed? What history will be forgotten if these monuments are gone?

No, but having monuments to people who fought to keep black people as slaves sure as shit is intimidation.

Which is why they were built.

Confederate Statues Were Built To Further A 'White Supremacist Future'

You claim that they were built to intimidate black people but have provided no evidence of that either. As a social justice warrior, you are a total failure. Your last line shows how desperate you are. Like the South in the Civil War, you have lost.

No, what's happening here is that you're a coward who refuses to read links. You ask a question, I answer it, then you say the question wasn't answered, even though it was...you just refused to accept it because you know you lost this debate and are just trying to save face at this point.

No, it doesn't, but I completely understand your need to pretend that it does.

Why are you lying about me and people of color? What's do you get out of it?

No, child, I'm not. You can read about all the history you'd like with no monuments to traitors being up in public places. You, specifically, might be to stupid to understand that simple fact, but rational adults aren't.

Yawn. Strawman. I've never made that claim, although the poster who did supported it.

Those statues honor treason and traitors, and you support that.

Be proud of your position, dummy.

Who said that removing those statues would make people forget who lost the war? It seems that all you and LV have are opinions and logical fallacies. Hence the ad hominem.

Three statement of opinion. You've been asked to back them up and failed. You still haven't answered questions about your authorization to speak for African Americans. You still have no evidence that they are intimidated by statues. You have opinions but no facts. Repeating yourself won't help.

Black people have know since the statues went up that they were used to try to intimidate us.

It's racist idiots like you who are trying to deny that fact.

Racist white men will use any tactic to intimidate Blacks.

Thing is, you haven't actually put forth a defense of any kind of these monuments. All you've done is attack arguments against them. But in doing so, you're passively defending them as a means to "remember" history.

Why else would they be erected if not to intimidate black people?

You are saying that black people are snowflakes, who need people like you to protect them from statues. Are black people afraid to visit Gettysburg?

No, you're the snowflakes who had to erect participation trophies so you could feel better about losing a war you started, and to intimidate black people who won their freedom in the Civil War from slavery.

Everything else is just noise.

And maybe more black people would go to Gettysburg if it wasn't littered with monuments to those who fought to keep slavery.

Why do you need those monuments, anyway? What purpose are they serving?

A. I have offered no logical fallacy. You should likely refrain from referencing logic since you and it are clearly unacquainted.
B. The post I was responding to said that by removing these statutes history would be flushed into a memory hole.
C. Please try and pay better attention and lie less.
