The Summer of Monumental Madness
”Everybody knows” that anything about the Confederacy is hateful and all hatefulness has to be exorcised from American life since hate, like asbestos and tobacco, is bad. At least leftish professors don’t have to invent “studies” to make this point.
Some explanations for this sudden and unexpected hysteria immediately come to mind. There are countless organizations skilled at turning almost any event into a fund-raiser while those obsessed with bashing President Trump will find any excuse to condemn him. And let’s not forget all those who enjoy cheap moral highs by marching against hate and bigotry even if the source of the “hate” is a coffee mug decorated with the stars and bars.

Yup, that about covers it. As for me, I live and let live as long as others do the same for me. She and her ilk might be exceptions, however.

The Left was cruising merrily along until someone took the tires off their bus. Suddenly, they are without power. They lost the White House, Congress, and innumerable state houses. What's "left" to them? Crying. Complaining. Tantrums. Petulance. Insignificant people are "left" with insignificance. Well, we understand don't we? We have been in their position for many years. The difference is that we were adults and acted like adults. We got tired of having the lunatics in charge of the asylum and did something about it, the lawful, the adult way. Maybe they'll grow up, but I wouldn't bet on it. I think I'll just go and buy me some earplugs...

It is very similar to the Southern Confederate monument raisings of the 1920's and 1950's.
