Let's face it, it wasn't about the preservation of history for them...

I was going to disable comments as this is irrefutable fact, but decided to see if anyone could say otherwise while avoiding scrutiny. Doubt it though

Such Higher Order Thinking.
Brilliant!
Making a correlation between historical figures as statues from 150-250yrs ago out of context,
and a live dictator statue whom was a valid victim of Regime Change regardless of context...
Wow! What brain power!
How does one individual contain such excellence in one human cranium?
You Rock!

Here's some hard data to look at. And a meme since you wanna be toxic :) https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/confederate-statues/

Also, pulling down confederate statues which is very much about a regime change in the abolition of slavery... is not valid because.... of what context?

Quoting this for posterity on how the ignorance is just dripping in this post that I can't not save it, lest it be deleted.

The statues were raised in the first part of the 20th century in response to growing calls for equal rights for blacks.

So, I think we're seeing not a lack of context, but a whitewashed context on assumed history on your part.

Bear in mind, the role of exception to the individual always exists and goes without saying. This challenge in discussion speaks in the context of the collective right wing.

The sad part is, far more American troops died AFTER that statue went down than had died previously.

Wow, replacing Teddy RoughRider with Orange Man... what a strain. Who knew?
The Rock connected to Lincoln is being prepped for Ronaldus Magnus.
No room for the Orange Mans Jowels! The rock is too brittle

oh, no. See. With rock you have to take things away. And you can't add stuff back.

So, Jowly McChinface here couldn't fit. Because his waddle is too big. And his eyes are too small.
