A Whole New World: Columbus Statue Could Be Considered for Removal

I wouldn't care if there is a statue of any of those people.

Right so now you can understand at least the apathy many people have towards colonial figures.

If 300 of them want to hang out and throw Nazi salutes at some random Southern General, I don't give a shit.

There's more than 300 neo-nazis in America. And far more crypto-fascist ideologies out there. You're either intentionally downplaying it or just blissfully unaware.

I do remember that one time right before the break out of WW2 Where nazi sympathizers filled out stadiums decrying FDR

I don't give a shit

Random question I wont follow up on, does any of this affect you personally at all? Is anyone calling your extradition from your country? Because I mean I can completely understand if you don't give a shit if it doesn't affect you most people are selfish like that.

Just like I wouldn't care if a group of Black nationalists are congregating next to a Louis Farrakhan statue.

I'm not even going to touch this. It's a terrible comparison that shows a lack of understanding of both groups.

Because if I genuinely gave a fuck about bettering the world and changing my adversaries opinion.

Am I doing any of that? Or are you arguing against you who think i am here?

would actually try to figure out why they hold the views they do.

We already know this. This is why we are arguing about statues and fighting in the streets.

I think both sides were to blame for what happened, I also believe Trump says and does a lot of foolish things.

"We want to ethically ethnically cleanse you from our country"

"No fuck you."

Is literally the argument.

But in this case both sides went looking for a fight, or to troll the other. I have a question for you, are you tolerant?

Yes they are, because words are working, and they never will. It's sad but true. I wish we could avoid it. But there is no way in hell we can avoid violence between ideologically opposed groups. One of which wants to deny them the right to live in their own homes.

No I'm not tolerant I don't tolerate Nazis, or fascists.
