People go to ridiculous lengths to defend shitty people, its really weird to watchAnd the dumbest part of it all is that he was still exceptionally racist even considering his time period.

Heh, yet again a bunch of kids wanting to tear down something that is valued by older people. This is all we see these days and, in the end, it's just yet another way for the youth to rebel against their parents and the establishment. That's all this bears down to and it's the same thing that's been going on for centuries, just taken on a new form. Nothing to see here.
And, as usual, the guys wasn't a "racist" by the traditional term. He had opinions that minorities don't like which is quite a different thing...but nowadays we pretend it's the same. If anything, the ignorant way these folks are handling race issues just proves everything John said to be right...that "uneducated" people shouldn't be in charge. I see these movements as the same thing. Dumb people coming up with dumb ideas that they think will make change when there's no evidence it will and, if anything, will just make relations between the sides worse. MLK preached the two sides working together and everyone ignores that completely and just attacks the other side like they're the enemy because it's more exciting to do it that way. And, of course, if it's torn down, these people will celebrate like they accomplished something good. Just a goal to get people to pat themselves on the back for helping social issues while ignoring that they have no idea how to fix the real social issues that hurt people. I think these people just want to show they have power to force people to do things and to exercise it. It's a power trip more than anything. But, by all means, tear down John Wayne. I'm sure that'll solve the inequality amongst the classes. ... Copied to Clipboard!

It's perfectly reasonable to tear down a guy adored by millions and who was an icon because a bunch of whiny students with nothing better to do complain about it? There's absolutely nothing reasonable about cowtowing to a clueless minority who just wants to boss the establishment around. And there's nothing reasonable about giving in to this kind of pressure since it just means you'll get even more of these requests. Especially when most of the uproar is on the internet and none of these people have any real political power to effect anything. ... Copied to Clipboard!

If he was racist by the standards of his day, he should be held accountable for it. It's that simple.
Otherwise, applying modern standards to historical figures will inevitably make everyone reprehensible in one way or another. Mark Twain's "Huckleberry Finn" is astonishingly racist by today's standards, but contextually he actually wrote the book to speak out AGAINST racism. Most of the modern DNC opposed gay marriage at some point, but times changed and they got better. By the accounts I've read, John Wayne was considered very racist for his day. --- Well allons-y, Alonso! ... Copied to Clipboard!

As would your pearl-clutching skills. Are you sure you're not choking yourself with that thing by now? Spare me your fake outrage. I wasn't even supporting what he said but heaven forbid you actually read. Most of the modern DNC opposed gay marriage at some point, but times changed and they got better. It has? Back in the day they said they were against it and did nothing to help. Now they say they're in favor of it and do nothing to help. - And, as usual, the guys wasn't a "racist" by the traditional term. -Yes. He explicitly was. Great explanation, kid. Clearly you don't know what I mean either. -i mean look at his handle-hotel_security -no one makes a shit name like that on a main Yeah, cuz everyone has alts that are in Sage status.

Cancel culture at it again. Many times it's taken too far. But, for example, Andrew Jackson had deplorable views about Native Americans that were considered extreme even in his day. Removing him from currency was absolutely the right thing to do. John Wayne was openly racist in a time where progress was being made and those opinions never changed. He should've been called out then, and he is justifyingly being called out now. --- Well allons-y, Alonso! ... Copied to Clipboard!

There's nothing logical about these movements. People pretending to think they're doing good when it will change nothing. Folks have no idea how to really improve race relations so they come up with these dumb gimmicks as a way to "help." And, in most cases, it's white folks trying to do this so they can show all the minorities how sensitive they are. Meanwhile the minorities just roll their eyes at the pandering and know that these white kids just don't get it. Like tearing down a statue is going to fix anything. ... Copied to Clipboard!

People defending racists under the veil of the "product of their time" bullshit is usually just ignorant people being ignorant. White people think everyone was acceptably racist prior to 1980 for some reason.
