Now I'm conflicted
It still has poles tho that you have to drive into the ground
Pretty gay tbh
retards lmao
And nothing of value was lost that day
tfw confederate statues serve as a history and reminder to not let atrocities such as slavery happen again
it was a good thing the statues were there because it allows people to reflect on history and as to make sure the same path is not repeated again
the lefists that are tearing them down are fucking idiots
Arguably
Statues are typically build to worship and remind of the past in a positive way
By your logic libtards should have erected Hitler statues in post-war Germany
You dont build statues of nazi soldiers to remind us of the past
Smh
>lenin statue in seattle
lol
I mean they dont make a good case for themselves when they try to beat up the statue

Initially installed in Czechoslovakia in 1988, the sculpture was removed after the Velvet Revolution and brought to the United States in the 1990s.
Lewis E. Carpenter, an English teacher in Poprad originally from Issaquah, Washington, found the monumental statue lying in a scrapyard ready to be sold for the price of the bronze; Carpenter had met and befriended Venkov while in Czechoslovakia. In close collaboration with a local journalist and good friend, Tomáš Fülöpp, Carpenter approached the city officials with a claim that despite its current unpopularity, the sculpture was still a work of art worth preserving, and he offered to buy it for $13,000.[1] After many bureaucratic hurdles, he finally signed a contract with the mayor on March 16, 1993.

The statue pretty much exists because some artist went statue dumpster diving
@Deleted User the statues can just go into a museum problem solved
@Valtiel thats a great idea, bu they shouldnt be taken down and discard
@Deleted User and its not like Charrlotesville worships the confederacy either
@Deleted User no they shouldn't and those people will be charged anyways.
Charlottesville is a pretty chill but expensive college town. My cousin goes there for med school
Don't get my wrong, I am just playing devil's advocate by saying it's not stupidity that motivates tearing down these statues
Yeah Charlottesville is really calm
ye
I still disapprove of destruction of history and culture, even if it's history you dislike
I'm quite surprised they banned CSA flag and remove confederate statues when fucking southern states have confederate flag in their flags and coats of arms
I would neither approve of tearing down a Stalin nor Hitler nor Merkel statue
mhm
They should just be moved to a museum. Merkel is too contemporary.
Speaking we started recently removing our communist statues. Surprised they lasted so long in country where propagating totalitarian views like fascism, communism and NS is illegal.
What country
Poland
👀
Communism isnt totalitarian dummy
How it isn't? All communist states were totalitarian. That's how our law specifies it anyway.
No Profile Pic = No Brains
In the eyes of a ex totalitarian communist state it is
