Topic	The moment #BlackLivesMattterUK pulled down the statue of merchant slave trader
Miletus 06/07/20 2:39:28 PM #15:	It's not an edge. History is history, you can't change it. Ripping down an inanimate object which could symbolize anything is like banning the letter x from math. It doesn't matter. It doesn't mean anything. George Washington profited more from slaves than anyone since the ancient greeks. The ancient greeks captured and sold each other into slavery. The pyramids in Egypt were built by slaves, why aren't those being ripped down? Why aren't the protestors in D.C. ripping down the Washington monument? Why is a State named after Washington? Why do people pick and choose what to destroy rather than using unbiased, equal judgement? --- The wailing of men, and the roars of women, The squirting of bone, and the strength of skin can be all be heard in wars. <cite>Miletus posted [p:940317386] in The moment...
