Little by little, statue by statue, street by street, our founders’ names - and our history - are being systematically erased.

This is what happens in times of revolution.

We are being replaced.

Yep…

It’s happening before our very eyes.

Why aren’t they upset that Jean Baptiste Point du Sable was an evil colonizer who killed the indigenous peoples?

Isn't that the opposite of what's happening here? Nobody I ever heard of was named "Lake Shore." Whereas DuSable is a genuine part of history because he was the first settler of Chicago. The new name is dumb because it's long and wordy and won't actually be used by anybody. But it's not erasing history.

St Petersburg was known as Leningrad for a long time - about 70 years? Eventually it became St Petersburg again.

Only if we let it happen ... only if we watch rather than act to stop the destruction of our Republic, just as the communist chinese cooties has done severe damage to our society.
