“Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.”
― George Orwell, 1984

These names still aren’t woke enough. I look forward to the day that our recruits can be trained at Fort Yasser Arafat, Fort Che Guevara, and Fort Vladimir Lenin.

I, for one, am willing to sacrifice my personal freedom, and if needs be, my life, for my woke, diverse, transgendered colleagues and our nation’s unelected, wealthy and elite leaders in Washington DC.

Eventually they will just be referred to as numbers.

Fort 17, Navy Base 33, Air Force Base 27, etc..................

Slightly tangential, but I never say “Newark Liberty Airport” to this day. It’s always “Newark Airport”.

Original names given in a spirit of reconciliation that has long vanished. I am retired Army and will continue to call them by their original and true names.

Lenin will never get his own Fort Name - he’s old-school Marxist, Russian, and a white male
