But it’s not a false equivalency. In reality, all of history contains slaves, with varying attitudes towards them.

The other thing is a people put up statues of Washington because he was our first President while Confederate statues are memorializing people and their willingness to commit treason against our country.

Albert, I kid you not, I saw a “friend” of mine post some stupid thing about how there are Lenin statues in the US. “WHAT ABOUT THOSE?!” the picture screamed, implying liberals were some sort of commie hypocrites without actually looking at the details which are that those statues are privately owned and not on public…

As society progresses further and further, the goal posts of morality move farther and farther out of reach of our ancestors.

Whether or not they were pieces of shit (boy howdy, they were), Americans revere the Founding Fathers for the, uh, not piece of shit things they did, like creating the modern conception of republican government. I’m not saying we shouldn’t tear their statues down, but if we let them stand there’s at least a reason to…

Dude, I have surgical wiring around my sternum AND a pacemaker. Ever hear of the eggshell plaintiff? You’d be looking at him. And my family would own the $25 you have in the bank. All over horrible candy bars called Mars/Milky Way. Let’s just be friends, you can have all those awful “treats” and I will take the…

Wouldn’t it also make sense to rid public spaces of monuments and/or depictions of anyone who owned slaves and/or supported slavery? took up arms against The United States of America to preserve the institution of slavery?
