Should they be removed?


Like these:
G69IWiN
VQ98fz3

Let's summarize the actions of the Native Americans:
- Killed thousands of American settlers across numerous battles
- Lost the various wars they fought in (to quote CE, "why do they get a participation trophy?")
- Had many customs that are barbaric by modern standards (scalping, genocide of other tribes, human sacrifice in very extreme cases)
- Are justified as memorials to the dead warriors, without any thought to how it might make Americans feel who had distant family members killed

Since we're at the point of re-evaluating these things, is it time to tear down these Native American statues?

It is part of history so it should stay. You can't just pretend something didn't happen.

Yes, we must censor history so the future will believe that they were nice guys that gave us their land for free.

Right now the right wing doesn't have much of a defense so they're just tossing shit at a wall to see what can stick.

a black woman yanked a confederate statue in the year of our lord trump, get over it.

(this would have never happened with Hillary and it's pretty great)
moo
why is it that the right wingers defending the monuments can't even come up with good arguments for it

Like, they exist. I'm liberal. I don't support the removal of the statues because I think they hold great historical importance and should serve as a reminder of our pretty ugly history.

Why bother making a terrible equivalency?

Native American situation: Europeans (generations later, Americans) invade and progressively genocide and stomp out native population: Native population fought back where they could, violently so.

Civil War: Confederacy attempted to save its economically lucrative slave trade by splitting from the U.S., caused entire conflict over their perceived right to own people.

not comparable at all

We should take down the statue of liberty. It was made by somebody who never made a pro-gay tweet in his life.

You conservatives are trying really hard here.

"Should MLK statues be removed because he was supposedly against gay marriage?"

"Should George Washington statues be removed because he owed slaves?"

"Should native American statues be removed because they did... iunno... things?"

All of you hyper right people are acting like butthurt nutjob strawmen.

I have no idea why people need to be carrying around assault weapons like that. It's incredibly threatening to other people, and I guarantee it's just being done so these impotent losers can feel powerful.

The north was the aggressor in the Civil War. Both the Native Americans and the South were responding to being attacked on their home soil. In both cases the aggressor wanted rights over the land it was attacking.

But keep mindlessly quoting this.
