You shall know them by their deeds.

It will be interesting to see people's reactions to the removal of a statue honoring a traitorous defender of slavery.

Those who oppose the statues removal will self identify as racist traitors, and those that support it will self identify as true American patriots.

All of the rule of law people have to defend slavery because, ya know, it was rule of law.

Are you in the right thread

 

[FGB]

A hundred years from now or less how are you going to prove ever happened?

Not in books.

No statues.

Not carved in stone.

People say the Jewish Holocaust never happened already.

Fake news.

For the life of me I can't figure out how the Slavery thing will fair any better.

You can't walk up to a display or a statue and it says:THIS MAN WAS ONE OF TENS OF THOUSANDS THAT DEFENDED THE SOUTHERN CAUSE THAT INCLUDED SLAVERY AND THE EVIL THAT IT INCLUDES.

Because someone will just say Oh,Yeah ?

...Prove it!

 

[LukSkyFokker]

Books and pictures, idiot.

Tell me again how you can prove that there was a guy named Jesus born of a virgin that rose from the dead? 2,000 years ago.

You think he was the first racist?

 

[FGB]

You are a piece of work.

I don't have to prove ANYTHING... I already know it happened.

If you want to know...IF you have the Balls...ASK him to prove that he is real.

He will know if you mean it.

That is what you are afraid of...Let's just cut to the chase.

 

[FGB]

Books and pictures, idiot.

RIGHT.

Plenty of the Holocaust pictures, Books and movies around too.

Helps less and less every day.

FAKE have not you heard the new word.

It is and will still be taught in school books, but as it was, not the euphoric recall version of honor, duty and sacrifice for a noble cause. You want a monument to the old south and slavery? How about the slave markets of Charleston where thousands of humans were sold like cattle. How about the whipping posts where they were beaten or the shacks where they were forced to live or the history of slave girls used as surrogate sex dolls for rich plantation owners and their boys or black men who were castrated because some white woman claimed they looked at her sexually. Yea, slavery wasn't all that easy on those in slavery and those that owned weren't noble in the least.

As far as the holocaust those who deny it would still do so after visiting the remains of the concentration camps that have been preserved or listening to those who lived through it. Fake news you know.

Proof of something has never kept those who don't want to see it from denying it. All you have to do is look at the Trumpers who, without an iota of hard proof still insist he won the election or that it was all rigged and fraudulent.

Considering the CRAP taught in schools NOW who knows what will be taught in the future. Perhaps the Latino's will do a little revision work and then all your school books and TV shows will be rewritten AGAIN.

Correct the truth don't replace it with the political correctness version that keeps changing with whomever is in favor...

Not carved in stone.

It's carved in many thousands of stones:

Fields of blue and gray covered by grass and stones. It doesn't need to be in town squares and government or university buildings.

 

[FGB]

Well.

They are still there TODAY, but so were the statues yesterday...see how this works?

Plenty of examples all over the world.

Comrade.

 

[FGB]

Yes.

I am mostly cooking crap.

The trouble is I am more than half serious.

My time on earth is limited to less than my time here at Lit so you fuckers worry about it.

So tell me what "crap" is being taught in schools now? Or is that statement just what you believe is going on? The truth isn't what you want it to be; it is what it is. So let's hear the crap that shouldn't be taught. Or do you even have an example of what you're against?


Comshaw.
