>>CSA statues were the first line of defense against PC madness. Well they are gone now...<<

Not so much. Primarily in the heavy pop centers. In my area, we still have CSA monuments and fly the battle flag next to the courthouse.

There are hundreds on CSA memorials that have not been vandalized.

No doubt. People need to ask themselves....who is reliably US-patriotic over all these decades? Who not only joins the forces but also never seem to apologize or be ashamed of American celebrations?

These damn unionist GOPers keep trying to ingratiate themselves by piling on how it was Dems who did this, etc, who were traitors (as if commies who hate America really care about that), who enslaved people, etc, are not doing any favors.

It is as it ALEAYS is...they are NEVER satisfied, because it is about tearing down the whole USA and it’s ideals to make room for communism. If they get the US, then the rest of the world isn’t that hard.

“First they came for the statues...
First they came for the SOUTHERN HERITAGE statues....and nobody cared.”

I’ve been saying that for weeks. A blind person could have seen that was only the beginning.

I have been saying it for 25-30 years since the PCers first started spouting their revisionist dogma about the South around 1990.

I said they would never stop at Southern symbols. They would move on to Washington and Jefferson (who were Southerners after all) and the Stars and Stripes which flew over 80 years of slavery. I was assured over and over again by liberals that oh no no....these people aren’t Maoists. You’re just being paranoid. They would never move on to attacking other historical symbols or revising history yet further to suit their Marxist dogma.

Well? Here we are. I told ya so.

Oh and a special shout out to so-called “conservatives” who were only too happy to stick the knife in Southerners’ backs and run down our history thinking you were going to get some kind of pat on the head from Leftists for doing so. Wrong idiots. You fed that crocodile and now he’s eating you just like we told you from the start he always would.
