Statues that took actual workmanship to craft, hours and hours of it...all they did was paint on the road...letters too, didn't even pull a Banksy on those raaaaaacists...although that might have taken actual talent.
Hard work and a subjective view of talent are tools of the patriarchal white supremacists. I'm joking but I would not be surprised if such an article is already in print at the NYT.
Nothing if that's all they did...but that's none of them is it?
I find your polemic little arse-biscuits musing quite edifying though, keep it up.
All the struggle, the sheer human will over the ages that it took to get you here, all so you could go and try and get a reaction on a fringe forum with all the nuance (I bet you love that word) of a retarded spastic.
the belief that because you deemed something as racist that gives you the authority to tear it down. is wrong.
you possess not such authority. you will be challenged for such claims.
in a country with freedom of speech when someone says something you don't like you have to tolerate it. unless it violates one of your recognized rights. and few other exceptions.
if this premise: "is racist therefore destroy it" is allowed then anyone who holds enough influence in his hands will have only to point something and label it "racist" to have the mob destroy it for him. your iconoclast act to defy an horrendous ideology has became a tool to destroy political dissent.
you blindly are convinced to act in name of justice, while actually simply destroy the foundations of our freedom, justice is subjective.
I disagree on a fundamental level. I agree that these people are evil, but the conclusion that thus they must not "get a statue" is pure fantasy. People should be allowed to do what they want with their owned property, including erect a statue of anybody they want, no matter how immoral.
Stalin, in my view, was a profoundly evil man. He had no regard for human life, he had no sense of moderation, and he was what amounts to the ultimate incarnation of the "Janny" personality.
Yet, if somebody had a huge block of marble and tools to carve it, should they choose to carve a statue of Stalin and place it upon their own property, so long as they do not hurt anybody else or their property, they should be allowed to do so.
LOL, the murals are actually hilarious, like gentrification affects single family homes(more like single mother, amirite?) the most instead of shitty apartments and block housing. And it's still the funniest social complaint I've ever heard "oh no, my neighborhood is slowly becoming less and less of a shithole, and I can't keep up! Now that my neighbors no longer consist of 30% drug dealers, my landlord can raise the rent and still get tenants who can afford it, how unfair! The local coffee shop got replaced by a chain store! Sure there was fights there every week, and that guy got shot last year, but the new place has no heart, no connection to the community!"
Tear down statues of white men and even non-humans, but oh, don't lay rubber on those faggy crosswalks. Don't even track mud on them.

Bioleninism strikes again.
quite the contrast between cultures
What's wrong with tearing down statues of racist men who killed Native Americans and enslaved black people?
Name these racists.

Gonna cry?
This retort sucks. By your logic, we could tear down Lenin's statues for championing the communism in East Europe and causing genocide.
Fuck communist statues, they should be taken down
When was the last time that happened.
They should but that's not the issue
Yeah, why not?

The people who are glorified ruined lives, they shouldn't have been honored with a statue in the first place. Evil people shouldn't get a statue
you are not in charge of deciding who is evil. nor enact sentences upon them.
If they kill or enslave people, they are evil

If it used taxmoney, no they shouldn't
To fuck with "Natives" for their continuing role in the fucking evil-as-shit fur trade.
try harder
Can't handle the truth?
no, i'm saying your bait is weak, faggot.
Keep crying
you first
No you

Murals? Graffiti.
While I appreciate the work, the subject and the artist are worthless.
