Those who have no past have no future. A person I know well reflected that he had served the US adits Army for over 30 years. He had over 20 Confederate ancestors. It would appear, he said, that the nation he served so long was telling him in the most explicit way possible that he was viewed as evil and contemptible and he and his ancestors are to be dismissed with contumely.

And in the next century, the name-changers will be demanding changes to the names the current name-changers have ‘corrected’ for history.

They are never going to stop. They are perpetual instigators who will always find something to complain about. Confederate statues, statues, building names, guns, the flag, food/drugstore deserts, colors, yada yada yada.

These idiots ignore the fact that slave owners with a certain number of slaves were exempt from conscription into the confederate army, hence the complaint “rich man’s war, poor man’s fight”.

What then are we to say who are the descendants of the men in butternut and gray to the nation whose flag we pledged allegiance all through our school years?

The Naming Commissions are a bunch of pathetic busybody fags. They need to get themselves some real jobs. They took away the Cleveland Indians’ name because they thought the team was named after “Native Americans”. These same piggies are the idiots who told everyone to stop calling their “Native Americans”, Indians. Fortunately, the Indians from India never complained once about the Cleveland team being called the Indians. Embrace the suck of the RATS’ new “Amerika”.

“Arnold” bread, “Lee jeans” must be banned and stonewalls should be dismantled. Gotta get it right.

However, most of the upper class did participate, Wade Hampton, possibly the richest man in the South did as did all his sons. When the yankee general Wadsworth fell at the Wilderness rebs stood around to look at this elegantly turned out, obviously rich man in his beautiful bespoke uniform. A dead rich yankee general was a real novelty. The same when the wealthy litteratuer BG William Haynes Lyttle fell at Chicamauga trying bravely to stop the rout of his brigade a Confederate colonel riding over the field shortly after he was killed ordered a reb sergeant to stand watch over the fallen foe. Other Confederate officers noted this and the circle of rebel soldiers eyeing the immaculately groomed and well turned out yankee asked who he was and one confederate officer said “I knew him, he is William Lyttle, who I knew in Cincinnati before the war. He was always an elegant and high toned gentleman.

> They are never going to stop. <

They will only stop when the silent majority finally rises up and starts to push back.

I kid, of course. The silent majority will never rise up. Quite the opposite. As the years go by, continuous indoctrination will make the silent majority even more pliable.

So the Stalinist purity march will continue. Today’s hero will be suspect tomorrow, and then erased the day after that.

I wonder when they will erase Democrat Sen. Robert Byrd and civil rights leader Martin Luther King. Both men are protected now. But Byrd was a klansman. And King wrote that homosexuality was a mental disorder.

So they gotta go!

Never forget it was Nikki Haley who started this entire process of tearing down monuments for cheap political theater after the Charleston shooting.

My congresscritter often brags about supporting the latest incarnation of the NDAA. Those bills always have some woke BS attached.

Also, my sorry MoC Steve Scalise was the first in Congress to propose renaming bases. As his stupid aide said”Well its only four bases.
