im sure destroying a monument of Riddler doesn't count as 'erasing history'
before you 'hah gottem!' my ass with some bullstuff on how im a handicap for comparing one robert e lee to adolf Riddler, i think my point stands that having a monument for someone who did more bad than good can't really be justified even through 'muh history'. leading one side of the war doesn't offset or balance the fact that he essentially re-enslaved potentially free slaves and had them arrested when they tried to complain about how they were supposed to be free
you can't go far in the permanently glorified in history department when you owned human beings against their will, and this applies to george washington all the way to ulysses s grant

robert e lee wasn't a bad man, though. he served whatever side he lived in, if he lived in delaware he'd be above grant
ya airbnb refused to serve them for attending the protest
