--- Quote from: PhantOS on August 13, 2017, 02:13:45 AM ---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 --- End quote --- malcolm x is by no means the worst human being ever I could however point to about a million other leftist fan favorites who deserve their statues being taken down like those statues of Saddam Hussein in baghdad you can also close your eyes and go into the town square of an old community, spin in a couple of circles and point at the first statue you see and that guy will have owned slaves, so this idea that Lee should be removed for "owning people" is just weak |

i personally think that any statue of someone who owned human beings intentionally should be torn down. --- Quote from: Tactical Nuke on August 13, 2017, 02:24:41 AM ---so this idea that Lee should be removed for "owning people" is just weak --- End quote --- why are you putting "owning people" in quotations? you know he re-enslaved a group of slaves who were supposed to be free by their contract but instead decided to renew the contract and continue owning them. and later when the slaves complained that they were supposed to be free, he turned them into the police and had like 10 of them shipped somewhere else he literally owned people. he was a slave owner. there's no justification for it at all. if he singlehandedly donated a billion dollars to all the poor people in the world he'd still be a stupid stuffhead for owning slaves. what's 'weak' is that you're attempting to justify all this bullstuff simply because there are other (non-existant) liberal fan favorites that are somehow worse than him. |
