Reply to comment by Glen_YngkinDid_9-11 in NY Times writing about statue removal, expect more where should I live and bagel discussions by Charlesinrichmond

how on earth is it a big deal? It's a minor thing that's going to be forgotten in a decade. The very definition of temporary virtue signalling. The people getting bent out of shape about it are silly, and the people thinking its of lasting importance are also silly.

I think we should have just renamed Lee to "Grant" Stuart to "Sherman" etc. Would have achieved the same thing much more cheaply

I wonder if a Jew would feel like taking down a statue of Rommel is “virtue signaling?”

Why is everything about how “cheap” it is, for rightists? Maybe the expense wouldn’t matter if we actually taxed the landlords?
