Monuments are not history. They don’t represent history. They honor men. Hitler is a part of history. Where is his monument. This "statues of bad people need to go" thing is, in my view, mistaken. Leave 'em up, but add some context. Orwell's line, quoted by Paleocon, is very appropriate. Distortions of history are easier to propagate without evidence. I would be ok with this, but let's be pragmatic. No one will agree on what that context should say. Freon

Well, if the monuments were discretely stored in a location where parents could choose to show their children, much like the dress-up shows you are so frightened of, then the analogy would be accurate. But the monuments are public, out for everyone to see, so the analogy is stupid. Freon The purpose of the comment was not to compare monuments to drag shows... No worries though, I did not have high expectations for you to grasp this. MM, DDD. Monster Man, Doubling Down on Dumb. Freon

I figure it was just an oversight, but you forgot to whine that Ashe was also gay. You spotted the chance to be a victim of the statues being removed (this does not "revise" history, as the traitors are still traitors and the statues still exist) but you missed the chance to be a victim in yet another way because you didn't mention Arthur Ashe being gay. But, hell, don't worry. Something else will come along pretty soon to scare you and or make you a victim of it. Your historical ignorance and dishonesty are on display with this regurgitation of the "Confederates were traitors" lie. It's another lie to claim that such removals are not historical revision. These kind of lies are the very reason why perverts and race pimps are so dead set on the removal of our monuments You know damn well that a message is being sent by the tearing down of these monuments. And what is the message? "Don't be curious, don't dig deeper, don't be objective, we'll tell you what to think and believe".
You speak of fear, yet we're not the ones who are doing the censoring, banning, cancelling and removing symbols. That would be your side of the political aisle that has taken these evil, perverted steps. And we know why.
Liberalism is an inferior ideology that cannot survive scrutiny in an open, objective forum. Like vermin, liberals can't stand the cleansing, clarifying light of day. A Confederate symbol might cause someone to be curious about the historical details and ya'll are terrified that the liberal lies about that era will be exposed.
We take down the statues of real heroes so that the leftist parasites can worship the stone idol to a black, gay tennis player. Better?
So they're taking down the last Confederate statue in Richmond. Damn.... One less place I may relieve myself... Greg

“The past was erased, the erasure was forgotten, the lie became the truth." - George Orwell
Yes it appears that these liberal liars and perverts are winning the propaganda war, which mean we all lose.
There are few things more perverted than liberals revising history and that is exactly what was done in Richmond.
Liberalism IS the hate religion, Freon. It's the central tenet of that intolerant dogma.
We take down the statues of real heroes so that the leftist parasites can worship the stone idol to black tennis player.
I call you intolerant. You call me intolerant. The name-calling neither convinces, nor changes anything. But the majority WILL rule. And you are NOT the majority. You are a foreigner in your own country. Freon
Poliocuck has no country.
The country he thinks he's a citizen of was defeated in the Civil War. It is no more.

It would be better if they were moved to be displayed in a place more appropriate. Where the majority of these things were put up, a large amount sponsored by the trashy women of the United Daughters of the Confederacy, it was to remind black people who was in charge.

Would you be OK with a statue of Adolf Hitler in downtown London?

Depends. If it is Hitler dressed in drag, showing off his crotch at the kids park... no problem at all then, right?

Not a new one. Probably. If there was one there from 1936 l'd be cautious about raking it down. We have Oliver Cromwell in Parliament Square; with over a million Irish or recently-descended Irish in London, this could be problematic but isn. Statues can become oart of very useful, even transformative, public discussion. An Oxford college- Oriel- wanted to remove a statue of Rhodes. Thats "Rhodes" as in "Rhodes Scholar" and "Rhodesia". I would suggest the ensuing kerfuffle, across the letters pages of every paper, on social media, in Parliament and in public, did more to educate about colonialism & empire than most school time. An historical - well, 1930s but you know what I mean- one of Adolf would certainly keep the debates lively and in focus about democracy, racial theories, prudence in treaty-making etc.

True, but he is welcome into ours at any time. Just give up intolerance and self-righteousness, and we welcome you. Freon

That is the irony of those who dislike statue removal of seditionists. They claim that history is being removed, but we still teach it, names and all, in our history classes. THAT, is where most Americans learn about these people, not from a statue that will only be seen by a tiny percent of the country during their lives. Freon
