Exactly! These weren’t nice historical monuments, these were more aesthetically-pleasing versions of burning crosses or ethnicist graffiti sprayed on an ethnicism victim’s home.
The ConFeds are the biggest bunch of sore losers I have ever seen! The Germans after WWII reflected on their role, admitted wrong and repented but the ConFeds refused to do the same, stuck to their dumbassed guns, fiercely, destroyed Reconstruction, instituted Jim Crow and have kept up an endless revenge-boner against POCs that persists to this day!
I don’t get it! How can a society be so zealously indignant over being rebuked over something so obviously wrong and go on vendettas that would make an Italian Mobster shudder at the fury of it all! Is it some weird Scots-Irish cultural thing based on “honor”? Did the South think like conservative - minded Japanese, obsessed with “honor” and “saving face” to the point where they must “always be right, always”?

DEAR CONFEDS AND “MIGHTY WHITEYS” IN GENERAL: Give it a rest! Black people are regular people like you but with darker skin and woolier hair! We all looked like that a couple hundred-thousand years ago!

I would love to see Stone Mountain State Park taken over by anti-bigots and turned into a general monument to Civil War and slavery history with all the pro-ConFed crap removed and even the giant mountain sculpture changed to depict Lincoln, Grant & Sherman. There can be added bas-relief carvings of Union soldiers, freed slaves, etc.
THERE IS NO ROOM FOR ANY BIGOTRY IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA! ALTHOUGH THE COUNTRY WAS BUILT ON IT, IT’S NOT ONE OF IT’S PROFESSED VALUES AND A NATION CAN REPENT AND UNDO WHAT CAN BE UNDONE!
OH! IF THIS COUNTRY MUST EXIST WE NEED TO PAY OUR RENT TO THE FIRST AMERICANS, HAVE THEM IN OUR GOVERNMENTS AND DO ALL WE CAN TO HELP THEM!
