I'm not too sure if indignant sarcasm is a great idea considering the situation at hand. If y'all are convinced the left are trying to pigeonhole you into the same swastika-shaped group, why do you keep giving them fuel for their fire?
Just gonna lead to more back-and-forth nonsense.

i guess we now live in a world where defending people's right to not be owned or oppressed in society is comparable to defending people's right to own and oppress others

--- Quote ---Advocacy and teachings while with Nation
From his adoption of the Nation of Islam in 1952 until he broke with it in 1964, Malcolm X promoted the Nation's teachings. These included the beliefs:
* that black people are the original people of the world
* that white people are "devils"
* that blacks are superior to whites, and
* that the demise of the white race is imminent.

im sure removing a statue will permanently erase robet e lee from all history textbooks and nobody will ever remember his name or what he did

the statue isn't being removed because of his beliefs. it's being removed because he owned human beings. malcolm x didn't own white people. he didn't oppress white people. he just advocated an independent state, followed nation of islam until he eventually broke away from it because he didn't like their teachings
loving try harder
