In modern times, the Obama-Biden and Biden-Harris Administrations have both allowed and supported wars that have killed thousands; Crimea and Ukraine. Should we rename the Obama Library and all statues with his name? Or should we use politics and not do what is best for the majority? Biden-Harris is still feeding arms into the Ukraine and Middle East, with all Lefty politicians signing the check. To be consistent, anything associated with any of their names needs to be stricken. Or is the Liberal dual standard in effect?
I was being facetious. I believe the only way to learn from history is to not hide from it or try to disguise it. It is useful to honor the past; good, bad and the ugly. These constant reminders make it harder to repeat the mistakes. If we hide it, so people will forget, then scoundrels will recycle the old music from the past and try to make it look original; repeating the past and call it new state of the art.
To me, the many Generals of all Wars, were never fully in charge of their fate. They are honored, by all sides, as being good soldiers following orders. It is always the Politicians who create war, approve and fund war. Then the Generals have to fight to win. In terms of the Civil War, it was the Southern Democrat politicians who voted to divide the country, into two, as a way to perpetuate slavery. These bad policy choices led to the Civil War. After that, hundreds of thousands of men, from both sides, had a job to do. Both sides, still honor all the grunts, who were victims of a fate, created by their political leaders. The majority honors the grunts, since they too are the grunts, forced to fight or obey; electric or else.
What would be best for the majority, is to put all the Politicians in an arena and let them fight it out. There will no more need to honor the Generals with statues. We can nip this in the bud. Trump and Biden can duke it out. Winner takes all. Trump only needs to knock Biden off his feet and it is over. Trump is like a football player and he will ram and tackle Biden, and then use an arm bar, until Biden taps out. This will save the majority of citizens from having to listen to all the lies and mud, as well as the promises that will not be kept. It is a win-win.
Now we have the Politicians, not only exempt; Obama Library, but still demonizing the very people who followed the orders of past politicians in their own party. This is a Lefty politician misdirect, to cover their own butts and their group responsibility connected to slavery and the Civil War. Democrats politicians of the past have all this blood on their hands but are sold as clean. Now they order the grunts and heroes to be dishonored and scapegoated, as a historical coverup, so they can do it again, and stick it to the majority; inflation, border invasion and crime.
