    Well, people aren’t specifically advocating for this to be burnt down, they’re just happy to see a remnant of slavery gone away.

    You can not advocate for something to happen but be glad it did.

      I am specifically advocating for this to be burnt down. These monsters gleefully ignore the torture and murder that went on here when the building was made. Imagine modern Germans throwing parties and getting married at Buchenwald. Imagine if Dachau’s website made no mention of the 40,000+ people murdered there.

      Historical sites shouldn’t be preserved just because they’re old. They should be preserved with context, and when the context is taken away, the reason to preserve them is as well.

      Agreed. I never advocated for violence against CEOs, but Luigi has already saved hundreds of lives (United healthcare started approving more claims immediately after BT died) and he revitalized the debate for socialized medicine so I am very glad he did was he did.

      And the quoted person wasn’t for advocating or glorifying the history of the house or property and yet somehow you’re ok with insulting them personally.

      It should have been bought by the fed and turned into a museum of shit Sherman didn’t burn.

        Shame they didn’t do that beforehand, then someone could’ve finished what Sherman started.
