    A carved sculpture made by a Ku Klux Klan member, on indigenous land that was brutally taken away despite a treaty, featuring the faces of two Presidents who owned other people, including one that raped his wife's half sister because she was chattel, is being viewed as a symbol of white supremacy? FUCKING SHOCKING.

    Blow that shit up. If Borglum wasn't a Klansmen I'd say keep Lincoln, but it's time to blow it up and re-do it.

    If we’re gonna blow up Mt Rushmore then what’s the fucking point of even having a United States of America?
    That’s the goal. “States” don’t work into the nationalist plans of Democrats. Federal government should control everyone in their ideal form of government.

    I want ANTIFA to rally up and attack Mt. Rushmore. I'm sure the people of South Dakota wouldn't mind.

    If we want to go there, the Democrat Party had a former recruiter for the KKK as Senate Majority leader as recently as 1989 and the founders of the Democrats all held slaves. Abolish the entire party if we’re going to get busy here. Disband it as a racist organization founded on White Supremacy. A disgusting racist past and many Democrats even filibustered civil rights acts in the 1960s.
    It sounds like you assumed I would jump to their defense? Fuck both the Democratic Party, and the Republican Party. They're just slightly different versions of the same right wing agenda. I'm looking forward to the future, where the two party system, the electoral college, campaign financing, and all those trappings of an oligarchy masquerading as a representative democracy disappear.

    I didn't realize the point of a nation state was to maintain a shitty sculpture in the middle of nowhere.

    I thought they existed in order to create and enforce laws that reflect the current views of society, maintain a currency for the trade of goods, combine resources for defense, to provide education. You get the point, I thought the United States existed for the people instead of statues.

    Imagine being so partisan that it pisses you off that the president of the United States is attending a fireworks show at at National Memorial to celebrate Independence Day.

    Yeah, just don't question their patriotism. They reject all the trappings of patriotism like standing for the National Anthem, celebrating the 4th of July, and honoring the flag, but they are really super patriotic, in fact they are way more patriotic than you.
