Now racism is finally defeated. Not defeated. Weakened. Shamed. Acknowledged. You can't defeat emotions. Freon |

It is a shame. More history of the United States now wiped out.
And no, No the war was not because of slavery. There was slavery in the north as well as the south.
The war was because of politics and money. Not what you learned in grammar school.

Now racism is finally defeated. Not defeated. Weakened. Shamed. Acknowledged. You can't defeat emotions. Freon Great point. It’s totally weakened and shamed because a statue was melted down. This is the proper understanding of things. Gives people with anti-racism Messianic delusions the illusion of profound victory. |

Don’t the thoughts and prayers go to the people who had to suffer through living near a statue of Robert E Lee? I’m shocked they made it, but they did, and that sort of defines what a hero is. |

Now racism is finally defeated. Every little bit helps (to achieve that ultimate goal). |

So when you have cancer you shouldn't scratch when you have an itch? I mean, according to your view, if it doesn't cure the main disease, it's useless, right? |

The implication of the tweet, with the “thoughts and prayers” is that the melting of the statue is no big deal. “Why do you even care?” But my point is that the statue has been there for some time. Why is that the big deal? Was it making people cry? |

Why would it bother me? |

This is the proper understanding of things. Gives people with anti-racism Messianic delusions the illusion of profound victory. Delusions are indeed powerful. Whole ideologies based on them. But you wouldn't know anything about that... Freon |

Do you think all those white southern soldiers and their leaders were fighting to be able to keep slavery? Most of them didn’t own any. No Thor. At that time the south was running a lot better than the north because of better politicians and commerce. The north depended on a lot of things that the south was smart enough to import. And the revenge of the north through their president and leaders was tax the hell out of the south. And no, Lincoln never mentioned slavery until near the end of the war. He didn’t know what to do with them. The southern generals and fighting men were all just as American as you. Even today, things are not perfect in many ways. And both you and I have no use for racists. |
