Trump orders Confederate statutes to be restored.

Some good news finally. History should not be erased regardless. There is good and bad in every major historical event.

Removing monuments erected in the 1960s, 100 years after the civil war is erasing history? Not your side's book burning or de funding of libraries or museums?

Those burned books that the Germans burned were books promoting adult content similar to what is now allowed to be promoted and sold. They weren't classical literature or educational books.

Maybe you should actually look into what they burned. There is a reason they never mention anything specific.

Nobody was "erasing history" by leaving confederate shit to museums and history books/documentaries. Statues on public property, paid for by taxpayers, should be reserved for publicly-revered figures. Otherwise the public should have every right to deface them or take them down.

So statues of traitors should stay up while information should be destroyed? People like you are need to get out more, this is an unhealthy way of thinking

Bet this chud probably thinks the Civil War was about state's rights too.

"What I don't like should be destroyed or hidden away"

Pretty telling that you'd consider museums a place where things are "hidden away"

We have been over this ad nauseum already. A majority of these monuments were erected in the 1960s as a response to the civil rights movement by racist conservatives. Marginalized groups should not be on the hook for the upkeep of these racist monuments via their tax dollars.

Gonna preemptively LOL anyone who tries to equate this to anything LGBTQ again like that one shitty veteran MAGA who tried to.

Yes, it makes perfect sense that tens of thousands of confederate men would want to get and up each morning and say:
"You know what, I think I'll risk my life over slavery."

No. Not very likely to fight over something so stupid. You probably believe everything that mainstream media tells you.

 

[Dark_Ansem]

... stupid? Slavery was the backbone of confederate economies. They were also obviously disgusting folk so..

History is written by the winners. So when lies are told, they accepted as truth.

 

[Dark_Ansem]

On the other hand, losers have no interest in telling the truth either since it makes them look bad. Are you denying that slavery was backbone of the confederate economy?

But they did so fuck those losers and fuck people who still idolize the Confederacy

You mad?

The lack of self-awareness is painful

People on top don't wear masks in public

Because "Real Men Wear Diapers", right?

No they wear maxi pads over their ears.

it is erasing history. Teachers choosing not to teach it correctly without bias and NOT EVERYONE GOES TO MUSEUMS.

It is erasing when you remove something in the public for decades. Just because you do not like it you can not erase history displayed in public.

How much worse it was than what some people try to pretend, I guess.
