> [@Damuri\_Ajashi](#): > > Sure Lee personally was brave and shrewd and had many admirable qualities but as a symbol he perpetuates “lost cause” ideology. It’s fair to give the post-war Lee credit for his work to get Southerners to reconcile themselves to the US and a slavery-free future, when he could have led a guerrilla resistance for years to come. But none of the statues show an old, gray Lee in civilian clothes, shaking hands with a black man. They’re all of a general on horseback. ---

No more love for haters. Ok Cupid bans Nazi Christopher Cantwell for life, says if you know of any more hate group members on their site, let them know.

I was wondering how countries like Germany dealt with similar issues, searched online, and found this article which was published recently: “Take a lesson: How Germany handles monuments from Nazi and communist eras” > **[From 2017: How Germany handles monuments from Nazi and communist eras | Opinion](https://www.inquirer.com/philly/opinion/commentary/charlottesville-nazis-germany-communists-monuments-trump-20170817.html-2)** > > The processing of history is like an open wound that slowly heals only with careful debate about the often explosive issues at stake. ---

The Terminator takes Trump to Task (again): > **[Schwarzenegger goes after Trump in video on Charlottesville violence](https://thehill.com/blogs/in-the-know/in-the-know/347047-schwarzenegger-goes-after-trump-in-video-on-charlottesville/)** > > Arnold Schwarzenegger has a message for President Trump: It’s time to tell the world he rejects “the support of white supremacists.”“There are not two sides to bigotry and there are not two sides t… “Let me be just as blunt as possible: your heroes are losers.” “Believe me, I know the original Nazis. I was born in Austria in 1947, shortly after the second World War.”" The video was refreshing to watch since Schwarzenegger was so blunt and not a weasel like so many other politicians when it comes to berating the president. ---

What’s the deal with all the nazi sympathizers running around bitching about “virtue signalling?” Is this something they freak out about on sturm frnt and other white supremacist websites? \*Holy shit, those libtard mudbloods are signalling virtue, and their unholy belief in social justice.

They must be exterminated. \* As I’ve said here before (in different words); “Virtue Signalling” The modern day “You think you’re better than me?”. A term used by shitty people who think that everyone is as shitty as they are, so when faced with someone who isn’t, they think that this person is only putting on a show of being a better person than they are. ---

This shit just doesn’t stop. and apparently has been brewing for some time now. Note the date. > [@Twitter](#): > > Donald J. Trump > @realDomald Trump > 4:48 AM - Mar 13, 2016 > > Bernie Sanders is lying when he says his disruptors aren’t told to go to my events. Be careful Bernie, or my supporters will go to yours! By now we all know exactly what Trump’s “supporters” are. The sick twisted Nazi bastard needs to go. Hopfeully Meuller has enough to send him and all his buddies to prison. Resigning “in disgrace” is no longer enough. He would just declare victory and hire some asshole to write a book. And foment MORE Nazi shit. ---
