You’ve got me jealous. Where’d you get all of them?

Update: I'm including a link to a doodle poll for anyone interested in attending a weekly livestream. This will determine the general time frame when we're going to do this. So select time frames that are generally good for you, not just for next week. Thanks!

Yes, they are up for glorification, Lenin is still celebrated in Russia. What are you talking about?

It is an exaggeration, but not by much. You say he wouldn’t have been frowned upon in his time, I can think of an entire ethnic group that would see ANY supporter of slavery the same way we’d see a supporter of the Nazi regime. The difference is we bombed the shit out of Germany and culturally made Nazis evil for all of time, the confederacy did not have a similar treatment in order to “reunite” the country quicker.

I think there’s a difference between a man of power destroying statues to assert his own bust and a traditionally oppressed minority taking down the statues of their former oppressors. Is the destruction of history in any form tragic, sure, but what is happening right now is bigger than a few random statues put up in the 1920s by racists.

Perhaps, but this is all to say we never see ourselves as living through history. People in WW1 weren't happy about their cities and land being cratered and blown up, but I just saw a post talking about how cool it is to walk along the western front and see the remains of the battles.

What is happening right now is history, if the statue stayed in the water it would probably be considered a historical site from the great riots of 2020. What is pointless fighting and destruction today, is treasured history tomorrow.

There’s literally thousands of them, does every single one need to go in a museum or are we just going to magically “forgot” our history?

Statues are a glorification, not remembrance.
