The Charlottesville City Council approved a plan to melt down its statue of Robert E. Lee. The Jefferson School African American Heritage Center will “transform a national symbol of white supremacy into a new work of art that will reflect racial justice and inclusion.” So, who’s paying for the carbon offsets?
Giant metal statues don’t move on their own you need toxic black-clad activists, #woke leftist college students, and well-heeled enablers to do that, oh, and trucks.
Before General Lee and his horse can be repurposed, it will have to be trucked to a location, moved by other vehicles off the truck, and then melted down. No one is reducing all that metal to liquid using wind and solar. That means Yuge! Carbon footprint.
Yuge!
Racial Justice and Inclusion are clearly bad for the planet.
And we’re not done yet.
Whatever racial justice and inclusion art might be – I dunno, a statue of Lenin? – it’s not happening without making this huge carbon footprint bigger. The melting and reprocessing, the moving of metal, fashioning, and then transporting will all produce more carbon emissions that, according to the same mob, are not only dangerous but exponentially damaging to minority groups and people of color.
Using their rules, this pursuit of political supremacy will harm black Americans.
Talk about ironic but maybe not as much as this.
The Jefferson School?
Really?
Talk about racist.
And what does PETA have to say about melting down the horse? She didn’t do anything.
Asking for a friend.
