What's worse is the statues in question were attempts to erase history, whitewashing the Confederate legacy. Yeah there's that too. Which is why the whole "erase history" argument rings as disingenuous to me. When you have the majority of these statues erected during the Civil Rights movement it's clear they weren't built to "honor history", they were built at best to reshape history and at worse to intimidate people. --- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MXezjbuzh14 <cite>The Great Muta 22 posted [p:885021088] in 'These sta...

That's because ironically you've never actually looked at history If you did you'd realize the path of people who want to erase and destroy it always ends badly. From the spartans to the Library of Alexandria to Nazis to The Islamic State to Stalin. The people who try to hide, erase and deface history are the ones who don't learn from it and it always results in pain and ignorance. History occured, things happen and exist. Trying to remove accounts of them in as many forms as possible is a bad thing that only ends pourly.

wah_wah_wah 08/19/17 9:20:13 AM #100:	Black people didn't have any input into the building of those statues. The reason why they are being torn down now is a logical consequence of black people having greater franchise in today's society. This is also something that happens every single generation. There's always going to be shit our parents did or supported that we're going to look back on and say, that's not right. To simply continue honoring that even when we know it is wrong is to cultivate hypocrisy. <cite>wah_wah_wah posted [p:885054137] in 'These sta...
