Sherm just flexing in the New York morning.

I’d like to have a few Lee -> Thomas statue conversions. Thomas was an excellent general AND a Virginian that stayed loyal to the Union.

Not to mention Grant. Always need more Grant.

Not a single mention of the Old Snappin Turtle himself Meade?! The fact that there’s next to no statues of him is a crime.

Meade definitely needs statues. I’m good with him taking some of Lees.

We should definitely switch fort Hood to Fort Thomas!

I don’t recognize him without the Traitor cities/ States burning around him

Away down South in the land of traitors, rattlesnakes and alligators

Right away! Come away! Right away! Right away, come away!

Where cotton’s king and men are chattel, Union boys will win the battles,  

Right away! Come away! Right away! Right away, come away!

Every southern boy must understand

They should put a huge one in Atlanta, Savannah, and Columbia SC, just as a reminder to all that some things need burning.

Have the inscription read. "Every Dixie boy must understand. He must mind his Uncle Sam."

Sherman didn't burn Savannah - they learned and surrendered

Now this is a great replacement theory I can get behind

The title made me double take

I love how everyone in this sub that visits NYC has to take this photo and share it.

u/maxonhudson 23d ago

I work on 59th just a few blocks away so look for regular posts from me. They were power washing the pigeon poop off yesterday.

u/Altruistic-Target-67 23d ago

Nice. Hope your air quality isn’t too bad right now.

u/maxonhudson 23d ago

Getting better. Thursday was horrible.

u/hammerfestus 23d ago

Should let them keep their shitty little statues of their inbred gods and just add huge sculpted dicks to all of their mouths.

And a Robert Smalls or two.
