Goals of the revolutionary struggle. Destroy the Four Oldsold customs, old habits, old culture, and old thinking.

In one Arkansas town, the school board voted unanimously Tuesday to ban the song "Dixie" for the next school year
Dixie was reputed to be one of President Lincoln's favorite melodies.

There is some reason for all this feigned outrage over "all symbols of the Confederacy" that has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with symbols of the Confederacy. Fanning the flames of racial prejudice for political gain.

Widen it even further. All politicians who supported slavery and segregation should be taken off monuments and buildings. Let’s start with that disgusting bigot Woodrow Wilson. Then let’s go through West Virginia chiseling KKK Byrd’s name off of every building it is on.

The Gadsden flag is next. Once it became a TEA party emblem, its days were numbered. My guess is they will go after the "Bible Belt" next. Home to those "bitter clingers to that homophobic, patriarchal collection of ancient myths".

And replace them with the "Four News".
Cultural genocide.

This is the power grab they have wanted, but was beyond their dreams until the defenders of our freedoms caved. I am not talking politicians only, I am talking every level of government and most leaders of our society. We not only gave them what they demanded, we wrapped it up as a gift as we threw it at them.
They have used a church shooting by a mentally deranged nutcase to completely start modification of history. It is a tactic used by stalin where some historical figures just disappeared from literature and pictures.
And, if they are successful here, it becomes the model for their next target(s). Everything on the socialist agenda will be subjected to the same type of reality/fantasy blitz. Within a few weeks, the entire country could be sanitized of anything that offends their senses, christians, the constitution, our flag, guns, earned wealth and property to name a few.

When is the last time you recall real history being taught in school? Two generations ago? The useful idiots are lined up.

Two important decisions are due from SCOTUS.. When they are handed down this story will be forgotten
(I hope)

Are they going to ban the symbol of the black panthers? I didn't think so.

Something is rotten in the state of Denmark. The liberals are pushing for a reaction, a definitive "Fort Sumter" event so that they can say, "See, this was all started by those crazy white conservative rednecks".

We need to start flying this one:

I guess Urban Outfitters is going to loose money after removing all the genecidal t- shirts of Moa, Castro, and Che from their shelves.

Yesterday on another thread I predicted theyd call for the destruction of Stone Mountain by the end of the week. Here it comes. Maybe it was the same thread I saw, but 2nd Div, isn't this exactly what we thought? Today it is this flag, tomorrow Stone Mountain, the next day something else. These A holes have no intention of letting up. It seems to me, it is just a matter of time, before they don't go after symbols, like the flag anymore, but go after people physically. Kind of like they do now, but on a BIGGER scale. When will the camps open?

This is a show of raw power by the left, the MSM and Political Correctness. They are flexing their muscle, showing off.

“In one Arkansas town, the school board voted unanimously Tuesday to ban the song “Dixie” for the next school year and phase out Rebel, the schools mascot.”
So...where are all the southerners working to dump this school board? And “Fort Smith, Ark., school board member Susan McFerran”?
If y’all don’t make them pay, the insanity will continue!

Stone Mountain is owned by the State of Georgia, so it is not implausible at all for the politicians to order that it be closed/destroyed or converted into a temple to worship the remade Obama Amerika.
