Nobody is that passionate about keeping historical statues, unless it's a statue that glorifies one's own mindset. Lee's statue was built for racist reasons, to glorify and honor the history of keeping black people societally inferior. But you know this.... you're just a wholly dishonest person.
Oh, all of a sudden context matters, huh? You don't allow the same parameters of context when Hillary spoke, or when Biden spoke, or when Fauci spoke, but now you hang your hat upon it when trump spoke. Gotcha. Not that trump's context saved him, anyway. His context extended well beyond his cheap CYA words. It extended to the totality of what happened in Charlottesville, that a bunch of white supremacists, neo-Nazis, and white nationalists descended upon the city looking for trouble, angry that black people got their way in taking down monuments to white supremacy whose only historical purpose was to rub their white-ordained "inferiority" in their faces on a perpetual public basis. And trump called most of those invaders, and ALL of the white supremacists, "very fine people". I listed MANY incidences of his blatant racism and you haven't validly defended a single one of them. Aside from all that, your posts in this thread... repeating the usual white supremacy spuriousness and fallacies only proves what I've always said on this forum.... trump's political support is ALL ABOUT white supremacy. You've chosen to die here on that hill... and you've been bludgeoned. For him. For his white supremacy. Because it's YOUR OWN mindset.
If that were true black people wouldn't vote Democratic at a 92% rate. Or are you calling them stupid?
I like how you generalize an idea in your head, and then spout it off like that’s fact. Like everyone thinks this thing you’ve configured in your mind.
yes, trump very clearly said he didnt mean the white power losers. it doesnt matter how many times you try and deflect insult, etc, the fact is he said very clearly what he meant and you are intentionally misrepresenting it. you cant give it up because its dem gospel. sad.
that is not correct, there are people who care about history. actual history and the unfortunate bits, the reality of it. you for example want statues of washington kept up, even though he was undeniably a fucking racist piece of shit that literally kept blacks in bondage as slaves.
so you do want the statues of washington and jefferson, the slavers torn down then? lincoln too, the racist piece of shit: "I am not, nor ever have been, in favor of bringing about in any way the social and political equality of the white and black races ... I am not nor ever have been in favor of making voters or jurors of Negroes, nor of qualifying them to hold office, nor to intermarry with white people; and I will say in addition to this that there is a physical difference between the white and black races which I believe will forever forbid the two races from living together on terms of social and political equality. And inasmuch as they cannot so live, while they do remain together there must be a position of superior and inferior, and I as much as any other man am in favor of having the superior position assigned to the white race. - abraham lincoln so you want his statues torn down right?
this is not true, he specifically said he didnt mean them, he meant the peaceful statue protesters that dont want history destroyed
