Looks like Mardi Gras Liberty Lady.

Perhaps it is time to start dismantling BLM here, as well.

[a fool in paradise]

Only BLM-AF-CCP is permitted to tear down statues/statutes.

Get woke, get broke.

The Statute of Liberty was given to the U.S. by France to honor BLM?

...and there is a RONALD REAGAN statue that is revered in Budapest. Makes one realize just how pathetic this country has become.

[cuban leaf]

I thought that the citizens of Budapest were mature enough to watch a public statue and not hurt it.

Unlike BLM, who never molested any statues in the US. /s

This is like someone shooting at you, and when you shoot back they accuse you of violence.

[polymuser]

I can find no pics of the broken p.o.s.

Interesting. Must be considered as too inciting?

[Dr. Thorne]

Oopsie.

Yesterday, a rainbow-coloured statue in honour of the Black Lives Matter movement was inaugurated in Budapest.

“It’s not a thing that speaks against either side. There’s no claim in it that Black Lives Matter or this is pro-homosexual. And there’s no message that the BLM is bad,” said Szalay.

So which is it?

[Little Ray]

Good for the Hungarians!

[PGR88]

Eastern Europeans had destructive Marxism imposed on them from the East.

They do not want destructive Neo-marxism imposed on them from the West.

Apparently Budapestians are not as gullible when it comes to who the BLM really are....Good on Budapestians!

That does not compute, blacks are not down with the whole lgbt BS nor do they support it's agenda.

"There’s no claim in it that Black Lives Matter or this is pro-homosexual."

BS. The only reason the statue was done in rainbow colors was to send a pro-homosexual message.

That’s the Before picture. Is there an After?

[nuconvert]

It looks much larger in the photo than it really is.

[packagingguy]

The area of town is a bit rough, people there could probably care less if they got caught. Been to Budapest many times. At any rate it’s a bit funny the “woke” got canceled.

[Covenantor]

....The statue was previously exhibited in a private gallery, where no one had a problem with the work.

Let me guess the composition of the crowd viewing the work in the private gallery..."Cosmopolitans" by invitation only whose exquiste loafers barely touch the ground whilst mincing about oohing and ahhing the audacious work of art. (Slapped up with whatever Hungarian Krylon is called in about 30 mins tops....cheap shot art.)

This was opposed by many, including the Our Homeland Movement, who said the statue was “an anti-European, anti-white, anti-heterosexual, and anti-Christian symbol”.

Sounds like 'Our Homeland Movement' and Trump supporters have a lot in common...
