Leftists Discover Something About Monuments

They don’t like them, that is unless they glorify some underrepresented group in America.

In other words, wokies think there are too many monuments to white men, and in particular white men who owned slaves or they think were racist.

Tearing down monuments is an indirect (and somewhat passive aggressive) response to “right wing” America.

They don’t like you so they want to tear down things you like or admire, particularly those things that support traditional Western Civilization.

Like Confederate monuments or the Founding Fathers.

But their ire is also directed at St. Francis of Assisi and St. Paul. These two white men have monuments when more deserving leftist heroes do not.

After all, they were Christians and Christians are “problematic.”

They also don’t like the fact that many of these monuments glorify war. I’m not sure how that works when they most often are dedicated to men who died in a war. That seems like a strange way to celebrate warfare.

But this is where we are in America. Anything that represents traditional American society is considered bad or evil.

I discuss the monuments issue on episode 527 of The Brion McClanahan Show.
