And taken down by those in authority at the time. Just look at London where they are getting rid of these statues to glorify slave traders.

evadgib Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 I'm curious as to whether the Greek Island bearing the same name has any connection & how many of the professionally outraged students have holidayed there (18-30 debauchery an' all that)? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got that right. Rewriting history is pure stupidity. W/out Rhodes, the diamond and gold industry in southern Africa would not be as organized as they are. Rhodes was a visionary who got the Seleous Scouts started to hold back the Marxist terrorists in Rhodesia. A shame Britain abandoned those farmers. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post tribalfusion001 Posted June 10, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 10, 2020 (edited) Just woken up and had breakfast, cup of coffee next to laptop and I'm ready to hit this debate... Take them all down, we don't need these people looking down on us anymore. They looked down on the average person when they were alive and still looking down on us in a stature now! Power to the people, this is what democracy looks like. No peace, No justice. Decolonize, decolonize.

I don't think Cecil John Rhodes had anything to do with the Selous Scouts, since they were a special forces regiment , raised in 1973, in the Rhodesian Army during the bush war with Marxist fighters under ZANU/ZAP until 1980 when Zimbabwe was established. Frederick Selous was indeed a friend of Rhodes but he died in 1917. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That should keep most of them happy, for a while at least, easily manipulated as they are ???? Not sure about drag but a few burning tyres around his neck included in the statue would be more appropriate to get across what he stands for.

One does not weigh up the damage done by centuries of exploitation, famine, wars etc. Quite an oddity .
