A statue people hail like a chief while they try and get all the Confederate ones removed. Washington owned slaves and so far nobody has suggested demolishing Washington monument or Mount Rushmore, it would almost seem like terrorism, so what's with the double standard against one kind of statue or monument and not the other?
People treat Abraham Lincoln's statue like the HNIC while they don't respect any symbol of the Confederacy or think it has any right to be there. What's with the double standard, when did one become so good and the other so bad? When the first updated editions of history books were written in 1866?
A guy history books (mis)lead people (especially brown people) into believing his intentions were more noble than they actually were. He was from Kentucky (the South) even though Illinois was called the land of Lincoln since that was where he rose to prominence. Had the South won the Civil War, the narrative wouldn't have been that he was a hero, it would have been that he was a traitor, so in order to protect himself, he had to make sure the North won at any cost. The same history books that write that Lincoln was a hero or a great man also write that guys like George Washington and Thomas Jefferson were great men even though they owned slaves.
People seem to forget Abraham Lincoln was a politician and didn't give a fuck about them or future generations of their families, and though it's time the country saw a female president, a female politician would do all the same things as a guy, because she would come from the same human/inhuman race as the male politicians and everyone else, and would be capable of any evil and human weakness a male politician was.
Abraham Lincoln loves going to the theater
When you and a friend have to take notes on a documentary for class but you make it a nice time and make tea and faggot cheese. Nothing ever gets done but it's just a nice time.
Let's sleep over and have a Abraham Lincoln Movie Night for the stupid English homework.
