Protesters demand removal of Mahatma Gandhi statue in England

[Counselor706]

Activists in Britain are demanding the removal of a statue of Mahatma Gandhi in the city of Leicester. A petition to remove the Indian independence leader, which calls him out for “well-documented anti-black racism,” has nearly 5,000 signatures, the BBC reported.

“Gandhi too was an imperfect human being, [but] imperfect Gandhi was more radical and progressive than most contemporary compatriots,” Faisal Devji, a professor of Indian history at Oxford University, told the British news service.

Gahndi was a pervy, smelly bastard but I would have thought his pedophilia was worse than anti-black perspective.

He did do some amazing things but hygiene was not one of them.

It's the cancel culture. Destroy everything.

Communists and fascists have used this successfully for decades. But destroying cultural landmarks has been done for thousands of years by every culture. History gets knocked down and replaced. In the Old Testament this kinda thing got done all the time, for example.
