Much respect for your fu skills. Thanks!

In fairness, I’ve seen commenters on Kinja say we should remove statues of Washington and Jefferson because they owned slaves. This came up when there was an event (BLM march?) in Charleston, SC, with people standing near a statue of Francis Marion, a Revolutionary war general/hero who the writer of the article…

Again, if you haven’t picked a side yet, after all of this shit, then fuck you. You can’t sit on the fence any longer.

Again with the equivocation of Nazis and those protesting Nazis! Trump is giving shelter to the white nationalists, and by doing so, he is aiding and abetting the enemy of the United States. He must be impeached, and it must be soon!

He knew exactly what he was saying with every repulsive word.

Just a primer for the inevitable “What about BLM?” “What about antifa?” “What about?” posts....

The president also declared that, nestled within the crowd of neo-Nazis and white supremacists were some pretty nice folks, and isn’t it a shame they’re being painted with the same racist brush as the people they chose to publicly march alongside?

I called this shit when he had the word “including” in his statement that everyone pretended was a denunciation of white supremacists instead of simply the same “both sides” bs repackaged. I did not actually think he would actually say it point blank again though. Holy shit. He must be removed from office.

Today, on a special episode of ‘S**t That Don Says’....

His target audience heard him loud & clear:

So the Nazis are in the clear over everything because “They had a permit.”

So everyone saw that right?

Thanks for doing the leg work and reposting this.

“I think it wiser moreover not to keep open the sores of war, but to follow the examples of those nations who endeavored to obliterate the marks of civil strife and to commit to oblivion the feelings it engendered.”

The took the Lee one down in the middle of the day. I went out during a break to watch. The Nazis had already given up and left. The only people there were 100s of us drinking beer and dancing. Weirdly, there was a vigil of Nazis that stayed for a couple of weeks at the site where the statue was taken down in the…

I love Sam Houston’s big ole “fuck you” to Texas. He warned them what was up and they kicked him out office for it.

There’s some great research using primary sources that shows that the soldiers on the ground understood that the war was about slavery, as well. https://www.amazon.com/What-This-Cruel-War-Over/dp/0307277321

I was here to read it. #blessed

An illegally convened legislature has made legal removal impossible.
