Correct. We can keep great art, or destroy it, conceal it, dismantle it. Once these irreplaceable masterpieces are gone, they CANNOT be replaced. The generations of master craftsmen that made them simply do not exist anymore.
Absolutely. I think the Taliban's local decision to blow up the ancient Buddhas was AWESOME. Unpopular art which doesn't meet current virtue signaling standards?? Blow that **** up!
It's a disgrace and should be removed/destroyed. Why? Current fads dictate that it would be awesome. Plus, these masterpieces are irreplaceable. Of course monuments to slaveholding rapists like Thomas Jefferson and Washington can remain. Rapists? Sure. WINNERS? Hells yeah!!! Arbitrary virtue signaling by local politicians is definitely what should decide what irreplaceable art is destroyed or left intact. Just ask the Taliban.
that graffiti art is now a part of history and it should be a crime to remove\fix it, can't pick and choose, it's all a part of history, even the vandalism
It's raging Against racism that was already resolved long before the people doing it were born. This is a case of rebels without a cause.
Note that slaveholding *winner* and genocidal rapist Thomas Jefferson doesn't bother the libs. Arbitrary virtue signaling fads. Gotta love 'em.
Yeah... ...no. Do you think memorials of Jefferson should be dismantled, concealed, destroyed? Genocidal serial rapist and all. What say?
the difference is, southern white nationalist still rally around Confederate statues as it is a sign of their movement, like the swastika to germans no one has issue moving these to museums and such, just not in the center of town or on state house lawns the Trump white nationalist movement is not gonna last long, in fact, there may be a huge backlash and removal of all these statues in a few years
Thomas Jefferson was a serial rapist, pedophile and genocidal slaveholder. Monuments gotta go. Imma right?
That's a load of crap. Every year, there's a big celebration in my home town. They even go to the battlefield to reenact the "Battle of Olustee", where people volunteer to don uniforms and muskets from both sides. Then there is a big festival in town. It's about our history, and heritage. No amount of political correctness can erase it.
Not only that, but if the *winners* are genocidal rapists, that's okay too! Arbitrary virtue signaling: it's what today's mega-hypocrisy is all about.
What, all ten of them? All ten of them are going to rally around the "conferee statues"? What about the nuts who like to do rituals and seances and the like in cemeteries, should we get rid of cemeteries too? Your attempted defense is a fail, as is your attempt to draw a correlation between "conferee statues" and white nationalists.
And we need to destroy the Washington Monument and Jefferson Memorial too of course. They were slaveholding serial rapists. They don't deserve any preference do they? Rename DC as well. And of course Sherman was a genocidal psychopath... It's all got to go. Right?
