pic is Nelson's Pillar that used to stand in the center of Dublin, on the left
in the center is the result of an IRA bomb toppling Nelson from the pillar
and to the right is the shitty fucking modernist gigantic metal spire that replaced the pillar, an eyesore in the city now

I understand why the IRA blew it up, and the majority of people wanted it gone as well, but even the lad who blew it up hates the spire they replaced it with

All of these upset me, but this one specifically pisss me off the most. I'm the son of third world immigrants myself so it doubly pisses me off that some people would voluntarily move to a white country... and then complain about "white privilege" or "black exclusion". They come to the house of the white man to tell the white man how horrible he is. Why the fuck would you do this?

And this is against FRANCE, the country with the single most fucking lenient colonial policy. The country that fucking allowed wealthy French-Africans to come to Paris to study. Almost all presidents of former French Africa upon its independence were educated in France. Senghor even came up with his Francophonie thingamajig because he considered maintaining close ties with France that important.

This gives me a pit in my stomach. I'm mad, I'm nauseous and I'm powerless because white people have become masochists who love nothing more than hearing how evil they are and apologizing for "crimes" that were committed when even their parents weren't alive.

I'm okay with removal of statues through lawful processes. A statue doesn't need to exist forever. If it becomes an eyesore, and people decide they don't want to celebrate it, it's fair game to be removed. Having a statue erected doesn't mean people have to like it forever and ever.

Vandalism and iconoclast on the other hand, no. You can make political statements without vandalism. It's usually the case that the vandal has no appreciation of what they're defacing. They're just being edgy, and they don't think about what they're doing, it's just a form of self empowerment.

I mean, it might be barely justifiable if the vandal had a full appreciation of what the destruction meant as a political statement. They understand the respect a memorial commands, and they understand the meaning of it, and for that reason they destroy it.

Like if I destroy the temple on Temple mount, it's a shame if it's because some edgy emperor feels like fucking with the Jews. It's a different issue if the emperor realizing how fucking important the temple is, and it's for that reason it must be destroyed. I wish at least the destruction of monuments would be fully conscious and educated.

But you can tell a lot of times, it's just vandalism, and poorly thought out.

that statue was dedicated to Nelson because he cleared the Irish sea of pirates, and British history from the Act of Union to the Saor Stáit was Irish history to a great extent

Hitler's birth house is being prepped for demolition this very moment.

This is what happens when intolerant liberals get into power. They think that if something is out of sight it doesn't exist. I assume they've never heard the phrase, "those who erase the past are condemned to repeat it."

To be fair, what has Leopold II even done that would justify the Belgians taking pride in him. If I were Belgian, I'd rather see that statue replaced by that of a king who did something worth remembering, like Albert who took his tiny country and managed to delay the German invasion in WW1 long enough for the French to get their shit together.

That's the point. The only real ties it has to Hitler is that it's his birth location. He moved away a short time later. The big deal is that even though it's a protected house due to its age and history, liberals are going to any lengths necessary to remove any history that they don't like.

>>1888017
The house is extensively documented, is protected, and has a moderately high value. The government has kept control over the lease to prevent the house being sold. There was no problem with the house standing since its construction and again no problem from 1945 until 2015 but all of a sudden there is a problem. It's history. Whether you like it or not it should not be torn down, especially when it's this small of a magnitude. Massive statues of Stalin or Lenin in Poland or East Germany is a different story but a house, come on...

The point I'm trying to make is that you should never deny your history and should never ever try to erase it. It's extremely sad that some people hate themselves so much that they would destroy their own land, culture, people, and country.

Some Brazilian leftists have defaced a statue for the Bandeirantes just before the municipal elections, but it backfired and the left-wing candidate lost hard.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bandeirantes

Bandeirantes were not really good people. They were slavers and ruthless, but they also expanded Brazilian territory into the interior of South America so they are well respected. Without them, Brazil wouldn't exist as it does now.

But leftists only care about "muh oppression" so any historical legacy dealing with conquest must be erased.

They are not. It's still uncertain what they'll do, though some town officials would like to tear it down. Hitler was born there and his family left when he was an infant. He himself would probably shrug about its demolition, as a distant faded memory.

Hitler there for less than 3 years... versus 60 years where it's been a bank, a library, a social help centre for retards, and school rooms. I'm no crypto-nazi fanboy, but destroying an old building because some tard lived there at a time when he was still shitting in a rag seems stupid. It's a shrine to neo-nazis?

I agree that it's stupid to think of such a building as a shrine because someone happened to be born there but to tear it down because of that is madness. Hitler lived there as an infant for less than a few years. The only reason I'm upset is because the only reason they want to tear it down is to remove it from history and from sight. It is by far no means a Neo-Nazi pilgrimage sight like the (((mass media))) likes to claim. I just watched a video from Tagesschau and they claimed that some Hungarian tourists with shaved heads are Neo-Nazis wreaking havoc upon the town when all they do is stop for a photo and continue on their day spending tourist euros. It's merely a leftist agenda ploy.
>>
>>1888575
It's hard to argue that it's not liberal politics in mind when they actually said that the only reason to demolish it is to stop it from becoming a Neo-Nazi pilgrimage sight even though it hasn't been a problem for the last 71 years.

It's only the green and liberal parties advocating for its demolition with a few people from the conservative parties.

Again, you don't seem to understand what the word 'liberal' means. You've probably had American neo-conservative cock down your throat so deep and long that it's cut off oxygen to your brain.

Louisiana fag here. After the Charleston Shooting and that big scramble to purge any confederate iconography from public view, there was this executive decision by the mayor to remove several civil war era statues from New Orleans, including the famous Lee's Circle. This was back in 2015 and it was supposed to happen immediately, but it got thrown into a bureaucratic nightmare by people who still wanted them up and now its almost 2017 and the statues are still standing. Some contractor who was supposed to do it even had his Ferrari burned over it.

And now after that complete bread and circus failure to appease dindus and #BLM, they tried to start a whole thing against the statue of Andrew Jackson in Jacksons square, since he was racist as well, and surprisingly enough, it never took off. Even the local news painted these protesters as nothing better to do busy bodies and had a real "oh just fuck off" attitude towards them. They even had some young black girl on the news saying how it was kind of dumb


This is all because New Orleans is a dumpster fire of a city and the mayor thinks he can build up his approval ratings by destroying statues of "racist white men" built in the 1800s.

It's honestly pretty silly expecting people to revere certain figures the same way you do. Autistic even.

I recall reading that during WW1 he was a P.O.W., and his cellmate was Russian 2nd LT Mikhail Tukhachevsky (later became Marshal of the Soviet Union before he was purged), who recalled that De Gaulle would rant about Jews, stating they were "dogs who spread their fleas throughout the world". Apparently he also ranted about nihilism and would play the violin, so I guess maybe that's part of the hate

I knew some Mandela fanboy would say something, but is a figure-head, he didn't actually 'do' anything too extraordinary. His personal history is also bloody and was by all intents and purposes a terrorist, even if you think it was justified.

The one thing is that he pursued a non-aggressive reconciliatory tone with his former captors. But I'd say that had as much to do with the spirit of the times and the decision to let him out in the fist place.

Ok, how about this? East L.A. Cocksucker Gang Bang Hood Rat Territory Skidrow Ghetto - a place where's theres nothing to do for the young kids. There's no after school centres. No safe and nice playgrounds. The streets are littered and so on. If you wanna play outside, it's on your own back yard under the strict surveillance of an elder relative. The gangs have an easy time recruiting kids.

So when the shit hits the fan, the police must stomp down, allright. But the cost is much higher than if there was investments made in the area to de-slum it and to drain the pond for the gangs.

The same logic applies to the suburbs of Europe. (Yeah, it's the inner cities that are upper class in Europe. Betcha didn't know that, honey?)
