We are losing the war on Christmas

Let’s tear down some statues. Starting with this one:

If the people who live there want to take it down.

Then let them.

Sounds like a local issue to me.

No, it is a statue of a woman killer and a baby thief. It has to come down. Are you with me?

What I said before stands.

That statue has no bearing on my life.

At least this was an honest post about how it went down.

It is a tribute to a savage who raped, murdered and burned. And got rich exploiting the system.

Can we at least pull it half down? I’m ok with the white half.

All my posts are honest.

He’s not living in the past.

He’s dispelling the myth you believe that Christian culture fosters an environment of peace, love, and fair play for all.

Nothing you say will change my former statement.

If that statue is where you live, then convince enough people to take it down.

It has no bearing on my life.

The culture of rape doesn’t have a bearing on all our lives?

Here in NYC the statue of J. Marion Sims who did medical experiments on women slaves was taken out of Central Park in its place of honor and moved to where he is buried.

We have no problem removing statues from places of honor here.

And we are apparently a garbage society.

Definitely a garbage society.

And you didn’t answer the question.

Yeah… but we get ■■■■ done instead of complaining about fecklessly to strangers on the internet.

I answered the question many posts ago.

It is a local issue.

If the locality wants to celebrate a rapist then that is on them.

And yet here you are.

I am killing time before I have to run lights in a little bit for a corporate job I am doing right now.

So you don’t advocate a strong central government any more?

And I am killing time because I worked my ass off this year and earned it.

A corporate job? How is that going to benefit me and my poor friends?

Nothing is black and white.

The things that require central government require central government and the rest is left to the states and the people.

The interesting conversation in politics is what that line is instead of a ■■■■■■■■ culture war based on opposing identities that some want to wage in order to have power.

But rational discussions about compromise about that ever shifting line between the various interests in the nation doesn’t happen anymore because now we are stuck debating reality instead of policy.
