Destroying America’s History One Icon at a Time
American Thinker ^ | Oct 15, 2019 | Fletch Daniels

Columbus Day brought a refreshing reminder that leftists are effectively erasing America’s heritage as an important step in transforming America into a socialist state.

As I look, “Happy Indigenous Peoples” day is approaching 100K tweets, which is simply advancing the narrative that was already set in motion by leftists across America.

When will flying the American flag become hate speech? When will Abraham be chained up and dragged out of his comfy chair at the memorial?

“Sometimes the people destroying US history are wearing R jerseys.”

Her actions illustrate why the founders were correct to exclude the children of foreign nationals from being President with the natural born citizen requirement.

They do not understand or care about our history.

Michelle Obama - Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices; we are going to have to change our conversation; we’re going to have to change our traditions, our history; we’re going to have to move into a different place.

Milans Kundera - You begin to liquidate a people by taking away its memory. You destroy its books, its culture, its history. And then others write other books for it, give another culture to it, invent another history for it. Then the people slowly begins to forget what it is and what it was.

George Orwell - The most effective way to destroy people is to deny and obliterate their own understanding of their history

Thomas Sowell - One of the most important reasons for studying history is that virtually every stupid idea that is in vogue today has been tried before and proved disastrous before, time and again.

Excellent post.

This very forum was a hotbed of South demonization under their literary God Macpherson and still a few stick their heads up from time to time

We tried to warn them that their bigotry towards the history of white southerners which was something relatively new and in stark contrast to contemporaries of the actual events in question was merely a prelude to a takedown of all American history we hold dear

I often warned the Alamo was next and Jefferson and Washington

But in their own zeal to appear “not really racist” and their personal issues with the white South they could not resist

And so here we are

This Mindset amongst GOPe or Bush type Republicans is why we have now been invaded by non whites who are trained as dependable proxies to demonize our foundations to enrich their own political power and that of their masters

The same republicans who demonized my ancestry lacked the will to stop the invasion due to their malignant prostrate positions on anything racial.

Yep. No disagreement with that.

Indeed. The left mentions or makes an issue about race and they basically can have their way with that issue. At the very least it gives them the upper hand because way too many on the right take a defensive position on matters of race or tap dances about it. The Left knows it too and that is why almost every issue ultimately comes back to race or 'racism'. The Marxist/left have been working this race angle for a long long time and now have the right in an untenable position.

If the Confederacy is 'bad' because of slavery Washington and many of the founders had slaves...now what?
