Intentional obtuseness or just plain obtuseness.

Could be either.

But you said these statues "teach history"...but you're saying this statue doesn't? All I want to know is how does a statue "teach history"? You are saying statues teach history, but then saying, oh no, they glorify or honor or memorialize things. So how is that "teaching history"?

I don't care about the WHY, I care about the HOW.

How? When people walk up to most monuments or statues they have a plaque that explains the history behind it. Also when people see a statue of someone or something, it creates thought and introspective. A curious person will go study about the person or event because they saw a monument of it.

Thus people learn why said monument or statue was important.

Like the liberty bell or Lincoln monument. With these artifacts gone completely, smashed to rubble, people would probably not even think of the liberty bell, or of Lincoln.

That's why its always the first move of communists and terrorists. So people aren't reminded of their history or culture.

It was like 3 in the morning until 5 something, dumb-ass. Of COURSE there were no responses.

And don't post a lot of garbage misinformation to correct and people won't have to post a bunch of times to correct it all.

What else you got?

It's about controlling the narrative and erasing history that proves Democrats wrong.

Yep. His bullshit suddenly came to a screeching halt. Just took a moment of injecting common sense.

So the plaques on all Confederate monuments mention that they fought to preserve slavery and white supremacy?

You're being intellectually dishonest again and cutting my quote short. Go fuck off dip shit.

Does there HAVE TO BE for you to be a biased, dishonest hypocrite for lying about and purging our history over racial bullshit while supporting an open racist?

stop taking drugs...just stop

Well, you said they have plaques, and I asked what was on those plaques? Clearly you realize they make no mention of slavery or white supremacy. So their historical value is non-existent.

We do not show the Union Jack from revolutionary war times. We do fly the Japanese flag over our buildings? Nor do we show the German flag. We do not have statues showing them. Does that mean the history of the revolutionary was and WW2 is unknown? The argument is specious.
