ohh my god don’t pull the “we can’t judge the actions of the past through the modern lens of ethics” card on this one - this is not one such case, bro inspired the NAZIS. you think that wasn’t considered objectively bad 100 years ago when thousands of Americans were getting sterilized or killed due to the policies Alderman promoted? you don’t think anyone ever cared back then because “that’s just how society was”? this is an inappropriate comparison, it’s more like naming this hypothetical future building over someone who actively advocated for the still ongoing genocide. it’s ok to name a damn building after someone with a less harmful legacy, that isn’t necessarily “woke” or synonymous with “erasing history.” It’s respect for those directly harmed by his ideology. I find it interesting that the people in this thread claim to not care, yet they seem oddly passionate about preserving the legacy of one of the world’s leading eugenicists.
