"There is literally no stopping the people who are now going around looking for any reason whatsoever to purge something from our national conscience."

But that is the way of all warfare (which we are in at the moment). Cultural destruction is key.

The PLA destroyed 6,000 Tibetan temples in 1959-1961.

In 1999 the Taliban blew up the Bamyan Buddhas.

In 1975 Pol Pot and his henchmen devised Year Zero to signify the end of all previous culture.

There are countless examples of intentional cultural destruction throughout history, all with the same goal which is to destroy history and install "the new way," whatever it might be.

In America's statue destruction last summer (but long preceding and following it to this day) it became patently obvious that America was and is under domestic attack by Marxists, Communists, and just plain old anarchists. Their stated intention and their progrom is to destory American history and culture.

Simple as that. And they're not hiding it at all.

I think it’s part of a cultural brainwashing. “Everything you knew to be true is wrong.”

Just like the French Revolution. They reset the calendar to Year One and for good measure renamed all the months. Marxists have a habit of burning things down because their convinced of their superiority.

I doubt if they will ever decide that the pyramids were built by evil tyrants using slaves because it would be a lot of work to tear them down.

Pretty good points...
