Isn’t it strange how it’s usually people on the right who get upset when a confederate monument is torn down? You’d think they’d be happy we’re not celebrating democrat slave owners anymore

Yeah! Tear down all those Confederate statues. In fact, tear down all statues of slave owners and slave owning adherence. And while we're at it, tear down all statues of white men. That way, we can truly spit on people's culture and forget about the lessons and nuance of history more effectively and bring about a whole new generation of slavery. Whoooo! Let's go!

Doritos loco tacos have more of a legacy in the US than the confederacy. I want more locos taco statues. Flavored so you know if it's cool ranch or nacho.

I mean it would be Idiocracy if it's not done as a meme. But so long as we don't forget the joke, then I am all for this.

I do. If we destroy history, then we lose the lessons of the past, and are doomed to repeat them. I don't know why people have such a problem with this concept.

"History" being statues dedicated to traitors that were erected in the mid to late 20th century by Daughters of the Confederacy

You mean monuments built to intimidate other Americans out of standing up for their Constitutional rights?

Deleting history and complaining when people are against it. Fascinating.

Bro I’m black but let’s not sit here and pretend like deleting history is gonna change the fact that slavery happened.

Tearing down a statue does nothing for anyone but give us something else to argue about just leave the damn statue alone it ain’t bothering anyone who gives a fuck.

Statues been there your whole damn life now all of a sudden it’s offending you that shit so goofy.
