Describing this as complex (whatever that means) doesn't make it so. Even if you remove the racial context of the statue being erected during s time when racial segregation was the goal in the south, it's still a monument to a traitor against the country as t stands today. And it's something people are fighting for. Such complexity much nuance.
The connection of the time the statue was erected to the self supplied stated goal (supplied by yourself) of racial supremacy is a logical fallacy.
Just because a bunch of idiots cannot see any other symbolism aside from a monument to a traitor, does not mean the statue was erected for such reason. This is yet another logical fallacy.
I mean the aggressive assertions that are made on behalf of the left are just another example of their intolerance. Most of them it would seem are simply incapable of coping with concepts outside their comfort zone.
These are the people that are suppose to be our intellectual betters?
