Removing the statues is a start, but the Inquisition is quickly going to run out of those...

 

Time to think about burning some books!

 

Oh, and while they are at it, why not remove the names of famous criminals given to many public places in the US, such as the J.Edgar Hoover building, or the Dulles International airport?

Hoover!  And I can't recall which of the Dulles brothers was which. 

 

... OK, got it.  J.F. Dulles was Sec State.  His brother Allen was Dir. of the CIA about the same time. Power brokers.  Yikes!

And why is that I wonder?

Maybe because his Mum was made a Baroness for no reason other than being black and BLM are dead set against the Monarchy....what do you think the reason is? And surely the same kind of protection should be afforded to all that may be vandalised regardless of what they stand for...The law is free from politics no?

[Chassa]

i guess in the US everything 'Washington' will have to go too!

Collectivism is their father, that is their wellspring.

 

It was the father of Communists and Nazis alike.

 

It is the father of Antifa and Alt-right.

 

All of them detesting Liberals and Liberalism........as you do.

 

it is your father as well.

 

 

 

Collectivism is not the father of Nazism.

 

The father of Nazism was Communism, as Fascism and Nazism were a reaction to the agitation and violence of communism. Nazis originally wanted to preserve the lower middle class against the threat of violent revolution from the left. Read your Ernst Nolte.

 

Communism is also the father of the Antifa. All its life Communism, and Antifa, want to overthrow what exists. Destroy it completely and replace it with, what they and they alone know is a better way.

 

This is why Antifa want destruction and chaos. They hate the current order and want it gone. Racism is just a vehicle. A front. For the useful idiots.

 

It's not about Baden Powell, or Cecil Rhodes, or Edward Colston. It's about imposing their own values on the rest of us, and first all that was before has to go.

Communists always want to erase history so they can more easily tell their own false story.

“Whilst famed for the creation of the Scouts, we also recognise that there are some aspects of Robert Baden-Powell’s life that are considered less worthy of commemoration,” council leader Vikki Slade said.

 

Sounds like everybody's life to me.

50% of Americas Founding Fathers were slavers- are they all to be expunged from the records?

Is George to be removed from the currency?

 

Giving over to mob rule , a mob that cant even observe social distancing for self preservation , is not the way to go.

No need to waste Baden-Powell's statue.  It can be relocated to a gallery of famous pedophiles.

That would be a good start.

How quickly we have come to the nightmare envisaged by Orwell in 1984.  Say the "wrong" thing and you are air-brushed out of history ....you are double-plus ungood.

 

Soon we will be admiring the statues our knee-taking betters will erect to the memory (alas a bit dim) of Joseph Biden.

Should they include emperor Nero too? He fiddled while Rome burnt.

That would mean tranferring the statue to the Vatican...

I always though snipers placed on tops of buildings, with instructions 'head shots only' was the way forward in situations like this.

Well, if the governments fought back of course the Antifa would be gone with its tail between its legs in a few days. However, if even the President of the USA himself is unable to get the military to fight the organised Antifa activists, because mayors, governors, and other left-wing sympathisers too blind and stupid to understand what is going on, or indeed having great sympathies with Antifa, oppose the requests to send troops, then clearly the chances are slim anyone will fight back in Europe.

 

The best weapons are of no use if the will to use them is gone.

 

If nobody fights back the left wing extremists will win, just look what happened in Cambodia, your favourite country. The communists and Antifa think nothing of using violence, and yet when a policeman pushes someone they're suspended.  There is no chance of any gun being placed on an Antifa vandal. They will continue to destroy with impunity.

You have to look at it from the spirit of the time.

 

Washington's and others actions at that time were considered justified, whereas Baden Powell's actions and feelings also at the time were not.

Ha ha, true.

i wonder what they were referred to at that time?

 

The word 'slave' originates from the eastern European Slavs who were sold into slavery by conquering peoples.

In English the word 'slave' appeared around 16th century.

The Romans called slaves "Servus or serva".

 

"Servus homo est, non persona, homo naturae, persona iuris civilis vocabulum"

a slave is a man (human being), not a person, man (human being) is a word of nature, person (is a word) of civil law.

It means that a slave is a human being, but not a person, in the sense that a "person", legally speaking, is a human being with civil rights and duties (and, of course, a slave cannot have civil rights).

 

So basically the Antifa vandalism is the ultimate consequence of Democracy. Giving the vote to everybody, regardless of property leads to this. The slaves have become people, and naturally now think they can decide what is good and bad.
