Explanation: For those of you lucky enough to not be aware of US political squabbling, it has been a recurring issue these past few decades over whether statues of ‘heroes’ of the Confederacy, the attempted slaver secession of the US Civil War, should be torn down. Many of those statues were, in the first place, erected in response to the Civil Rights Movement in an attempt to intimidate Black Americans.
The excuse given by many is that tearing down such statues is ‘destroying history’ and ‘erasing the past’. As if keeping propaganda pieces up in public spaces is necessary to remember historical events.
because of destroying statues, no one knows what happened in Germany in the 30s. who was their leader, what did they do?
I ask so called “historians” and they tell me that they were nazis and “he was literally Hitler”, i hate it when they call people they don’t like Hitler, just give me the actual name, not an insult.

Where are you referring to? Germans learn a lot about their history from their curriculums. It isn’t whitewashed like the US. Spreading misinformation just for a sake of making a hot take isn’t the flex you think it is.

Wtf are you on about?
I’m joking that because they removed nazi and Hitler statues, there’s no way to know what happened. which is obviously wrong.
the next part is more akin to: https://youtu.be/zvgZtdmyKlI
History is key, which is why in parliament square opposite the statue of Churchill there’s a statue of Hitler
… Oh there isn’t? Huh
Who is this Hilter guy everyone keeps talking about? Never saw a statue of him so I don’t think he’s real
Give it a few more months…
