Those who control the past control the future, and those who control the present control the past

If you erase all sign posts to the past, obviously books and information access on the Internet is one but also statues, place names, architecture, family structures etc it is a lot easier to warp a person's sense of reality and accept a new belief structure.

Think of statues as one of the wake ups we have, they are reminders of history so everytime someone thinks they can repeat the past mistakes again just with a new coat of paint, we can point to them of why it's a failed idea.
