For Marxism to take hold, everything that came before it must be burnt to the ground, according to the standards of today’s radical leftists. No matter the historical background, if it does not serve the purposes of the Great Reset’s dystopian agenda, it must be torn down to the ground. Even if it’s something as simple as a name.
This has been proven across the culture, from iconic food brands like Aunt Jemima, which is no more – to Sports, where the Cleveland Indians have gone the way of the dodo – across all areas, the illiberal left is on a crusade to cancel anything that poses any sort of threat to its narrative, usually by employing the standard “racist” ballyhooing.
Well, that’s exactly what has happened once again, however, this time, it’s on a much larger scale.
This past month, a recently created federal task force that solely focuses on “derogatory geographic names” announced that the US will be renaming a whopping 660 mountains, rivers, and other landmarks in order to remove all traces of “racist” language.
The upcoming changes signify the first cuts that the Biden Regime will make at the behest of the newly formed task force, which is operating within the US Department of Interior (DOI) under the Secretary of DOI Deb Haaland.

According to her, the changes are “long overdue.”
From Haaland:
“Words matter, particularly in our work to make our nation’s public lands and waters accessible and welcoming to people of all backgrounds. Consideration of these replacements is a big step forward in our efforts to remove derogatory terms whose expiration dates are long overdue. Throughout this process, broad engagement with Tribes, stakeholders and the general public will help us advance our goals of equity and inclusion.”

Thank you Nimrata Randhawa for getting this history erasing ball rolling.
And yet all the shopping malls in that part of Phoenix are still named after Squaw Peak, and NO ONE uses the new name. It is less popular than Willis Tower.
Lucky for us there’s nothing important on our plates at the present time. Thus giving these folks the free time to make us less racis’ and more “hole” as a nation. As in TWSH! if this continues.
All right, I’m stupid, but what does she have to do with it?
Exactly. She’s the catalyst for all this movement. She started a movement to erase White Christendom and all the builders of this nation.
There isn’t a TV show from the 50’s thru 2020 that won’t have a word, phrase, reference or innuendo that’ll be acceptable to these people. “The View” and Rachel Madcow will air 24/7.
You can’t be serious?

Squaw just means woman or wife. Who decided it was derogatory?
What’s amazing is how anything referencing “native Americans” is being ripped out of American social life and culture. They used to be a much larger part of American culture. In the vision of the Left, American Indians are just one tiny, disparate ethnic group among much larger and dominant ethnic enclaves - now they are truly living in isolated cultural reservations.
Hi.
Soon, one day, these idiots will have erased/ invalidate my 201 file.
“1st ID, is now Ft. Wanka. 82nd AB now Ft. Harvey Milk.”
Bye Army, it was nice knowing you.

She got this ball rolling with her caving to the woke mob over the Confederate flag.
Since then the erasure of our history has gone into overdrive.
Statues, flags, place names.

Funny story; In laws come to visit - ask if the Navajo will give them discounts because they are all Indians. How we laughed...
Thank you.

It’s a good thing we have the border under control, Covid wiped out, inflation whipped, gasoline back down to $1.50 a gal, war in Ukraine is over, and everything is coming up roses!
Someday all those old TV shows will be banned, anyway. Their casts were all or mostly white, and they said things that are not considered PC today.
that’s double plus good news.
