I'd rather our focus be more on statutes--and less on statues--right now.
I think the whole statue thing has devolved into a distraction from the main issue, and probably intentionally so by the design of various disinformation agents.
By just tearing down any statue on any basis, they’ve successfully obfuscated the issue to the point of reductio ad absurdum and made a mockery and distraction out of it.
Surkovian styled propaganda does not always deny the truth but rather confuses the observer beyond all reason as to whatever the truth might be so leaving then numb and cynical to the actual truth.
So when the point of this past month isn’t systematic racism and police brutality but rather the need to tear down a statue of Mr. Rogers for some odd reason, the former discussion loses all focus and appeal.
Statues literally aren’t going anywhere and we have plenty of time to decide which ones stay and which ones go.
I’d much rather the discussion be about statutes, not statues right now.
