God I wish I was him

Also the US: "Wow it looks pretty reactionary out there huh? Looks like we're the best friend you're gonna get, you better stick with us."

By my principled analysis, it must be noted that:

The massive bronze sculpture of Confederate General Robert E. Lee, in uniform, astride his horse Traveller, stood in a downtown Charlottesville park for nearly a century. It was at the center of a deadly white nationalist rally in 2017, when Neo-Nazis and white supremacists tried to stop the city's plans to remove the statue.

It came down to cheers in July of 2021.

[...]

Charlottesville prevailed in a protracted legal battle with the Sons of Confederate Veterans and other groups, and donated the Lee statue to a coalition that proposed to melt it down and create a more inclusive public art installation.

[...]

Lawsuits to stop the project failed, and last weekend organizers moved forward, with great secrecy, to disassemble and melt down the Lee monument.

The work is being done at an out-of-state foundry. NPR agreed not to reveal its location or the identity of the workers because they fear repercussions.

They use a torch to score the head of the statue, in the pattern of a death mask. Lee's face falls to floor with a loud clank.

The symbolism is poignant for Andrea Douglas, executive director of the Jefferson School African American Cultural Center in Charlottesville, which is leading the project.

"The act of myth-making that has occurred around Robert E. Lee, removing his face is emblematic of the kind of removal of that kind of myth," Douglas says.

The project is called Swords into Plowshares, taken from a Bible verse in the book of Isaiah.

[...]

The melting down of the Lee statue will take weeks. It weighed nearly 10,000 pounds. Organizers say the next step will be choosing an artist who will craft the bronze ingots into a new art form to be displayed in Charlottesville.

"I've tried coaxing them, I've tried coercing them, but they all tell me to work on myself EVEN THOUGH I ALREADY WORK OUT"

"Texans will not stand for their tax dollars to aid and abet Satanic medicine," Abbott told reporters on Tuesday.

"Plus I just really like razor wire" he added.

In other news, c/fakenews still seems to be locked for non-mods. We have passive-aggressively reached out to Melina by mentioning it to various non-Melina users, but she could not be reached in this way for comment

No you don't. You know why? Because the status quo is intensely violent, and at best it's both lazy as fuck and pointless to talk about violence in terms that aren't relative to that. At worst, it's deliberately laundering genocide apologia

The good news is that if you're not trying to carry water for a genocidal project, then I can tell you why you denounce anti-imperial violence but never even think of imperial violence: Because it's comfortable. Imperial media allows you to ignore all violence but that which threatens it, and you happily accept that ignorance

You, who are so liberal and so humane, who have such an exaggerated adoration of culture that it verges on affectation, you pretend to forget that you own colonies and that in them men are massacred in your name.

And Carl Mark was a greedy materialist. Tf do you tankies think you're doing?

This is really heating up. Maybe eventually they'll get someone other than a rich lich to make an accusation

Fun excerpt from her Wikipedia page:

In 2019, Osbourne appeared on the British panel show Would I Lie to You? in which guests make statements about themselves and fellow panellists guess whether or not the statements are true. She claimed that during a house fire she made her assistant go back into the house to save pieces of art. She also claimed that she ripped an oxygen mask off the assistant and gave it to her dog. She then proceeded to fire him when he did not find the situation funny, believing he might have lung damage from smoke inhalation, saying "he showed absolutely no sense of humour" during the fire. After the usual deliberations by fellow panellists, she confirmed the incident to be true.
