American nationalist

2020-06-16 16:19:55 UTC  

I think. Lol

2020-06-16 16:21:46 UTC  

How often do discussions/debates happen here?

2020-06-16 16:22:45 UTC  

Rarely

2020-06-16 16:22:46 UTC  

Not bad not bad

2020-06-16 16:22:47 UTC  

I mean

2020-06-16 16:22:50 UTC  

Honestly

2020-06-16 16:22:59 UTC  

It depends on the day tbh

2020-06-16 16:23:04 UTC  

And if anything interesting happens

2020-06-16 16:23:30 UTC  

The only debate in here i think was with me and @americanaf debating if we should open the economy

2020-06-16 16:24:53 UTC  

Gotcha. What are your guys’ thoughts on tearing down statues and wanting to rename military bases?

2020-06-16 16:25:03 UTC  

Bullshit

2020-06-16 16:25:08 UTC  

Bs

2020-06-16 16:25:21 UTC  

Aberham Lincoln freed slaves

2020-06-16 16:25:43 UTC  

Maybe they should read a history book for once in there life's

2020-06-16 16:25:45 UTC  

People can suck my cock and leave my country before that ever happens

2020-06-16 16:26:08 UTC  

Gosh forbid if they find a way to attack statue of liberty

2020-06-16 16:26:18 UTC  

Huh? They desecrated the steps of the Lincoln memorial but not the actual statue. What about like Robert E Lee?

2020-06-16 16:27:27 UTC  

Theres a petition

2020-06-16 16:27:33 UTC  

To wreck it

2020-06-16 16:28:06 UTC  

Lincoln? Ha. Like that’ll ever happen. What are you thoughts on tearing down Robert E Lee?

2020-06-16 16:29:54 UTC  

Doesnt matter which side they fought on. It's a piece of history and you keep it

2020-06-16 16:30:43 UTC  

Berlin Wall is also a piece of history.

2020-06-16 16:31:11 UTC  

*was

2020-06-16 16:33:25 UTC  

Wasnt that wall dividing the country i think

2020-06-16 16:33:52 UTC  

Can you give a better argument besides it’s history? Just because someone is a historical figure doesn’t mean you should name a military base after them

2020-06-16 16:34:33 UTC  

Did you hear about the 2 cops who

2020-06-16 16:34:33 UTC  

Was fired

2020-06-16 16:34:47 UTC  

For defending themselves

2020-06-16 16:41:15 UTC  

I don't need to give a better argument to something that helped to forge our country into what it is now. If you try to remove history, it simply repeats itself.

2020-06-16 16:41:55 UTC  

I smell a civil war coming

2020-06-16 16:46:15 UTC  

Yes you do because the axiom you picked for defending the statues is just “it’s history”. But if hypothetically Germany had a “Hitler airforce base” that would be problematic. A very good response to your argument would be to just put the statues in a museum, and not glorifying them in public

2020-06-16 16:55:47 UTC  

For the record, I’m not in favor of tearing them down. And I wouldn’t disagree that the history behind them is an important reason to keep them. I just think that argument alone isn’t strong enough

2020-06-16 16:56:52 UTC  

We must learn from history

2020-06-16 16:57:07 UTC  

So that we can prevent it or lessen the problems

2020-06-16 16:57:42 UTC  

Tearing it down will make people forget the solutions and will repeat the problems maybe worse since now a days weapons are more advanced

2020-06-16 17:12:01 UTC  

Tearing down statues -> people forgetting about the evils of slavery -> second civil war. That’s a dictionary definition of a slippery slope fallacy.

2020-06-16 17:12:51 UTC  

We still learn about slavery/the civil war in school, and we would have them still in museums. The purpose of the statues is to admire and honor them, not to remember a nasty past.

2020-06-17 00:22:11 UTC  

They teared down the Columbus statue
