I’m not a believer in any purposeful and vengeful diety/dieties, but should I be wrong, I do hope the sadistic fucks that perpetrated this bullshit on other people found some kind of hell to rot in for eternity. Anyone that continues to defends this behavior can fucking join them.
The fact that this was allowed to happen for CENTURIES… The fact that the Holocaust happened, pretty much tells you there is no God. Or if there is, he certainly doesn’t give a shit about us… Or worse yet he’s an evil fuck who enjoys torture… But a loving God? No, that is impossible.
That’s a lot of states rights on that man’s back.
And just think of all the useful skills that guy probably learned!
/s just in case there are any Florida school textbook authors in the thread
You sound like someone who reads a lot of banned books. We’d get along.
Plenty of Americans will tell you the Civil War was about freedom. The question is whose freedom they care about.
My boomer parents will still say they had a great time working for us. Fuck boomers and silent generation and the generations before that
Holy fucking shit those are really thick and outward.
Because of the grayscale color it almost looks like a bad weld job and metal just dripped all over. It’s so hard coming to terms with just how deep those must have been in order to scar up that much and probably often not just deep
This is the word Desantis says was good for black people.
You wanna know what to put in place of one of those installed-in-1952 civil war statues they tore down?
Put this. Entitle it “tyranny will bend the backs of the strong. Let freedom ring.”
You’re right; someone should put up a large statue of this guy and his back. Make it visible. With a huge sign explaining who he was and why he looks this way. I’m sure republican supporters would complain, damage it or try to tear it down.
This is what comes to mind when some neonazi whines about preserving confederate statues n’ shit because of ‘muh heritage!’
They’re not wrong that it’s our heritage; but it’s DEFINITELY not one to be proud of. If we’re going to showcase that side of US history (and we should), it should be done similarly to that of the holocaust museum: pull no punches in highlighting the absolute evil of the aggressors, and the suffering of the victims.
When we look at our ‘heritage’ we should feel shame and disgust so that when current events start to echo that history, we understand the gravity of what’s unfolding and make it top priority to stop that shit in its tracks.
