Do statues tell us anything about history?

In fact I’d like to say that it should be illegal in all countries to name bridges, airports, roads, etcetera after any person whatsoever. Every time a new regime or ideology comes into power, then things get changed up at a huge cost to the tax payer. It’s bullshit.

I understand and acknowledge that people are upset about what statues symbolize, however destroying legitimate art is pure vandalism. Put the statues in a museums and make it illegal for anyone to-forever to look at statues of people who have committed any atrocities and that goes for everyone of all races and creed.

Destroying art will never be ok in my book. Even if it was meant for propaganda purposes and it will continue.

Put it in museums. And be done with it.

And maybe those pulling statues down should be more concerned with the current atrocities going in, like in Lydian slave markets or Chinese concentration camps. Instead of pulling down art that’s part of history.
