RIP Wall Street Bull?

The controversial Wall Street "Fearless Girl" statue — a corporate publicity stunt that turned into a feminist icon — will likely be moved next week from her home in New York City's financial district, but if she goes, she'll be taking the iconic Wall Street bull statue she co-opted with her.
The statue was supposed to be only a one-month wonder, but after she became a magnet for tourists, and for female legislators looking to prove they "persist" and "resist" with a photo opportunity, NYC's mayor Bill de Blasio extended the statue's lease through March 8, 2018. But now, it has come time to decommission the statue, and since she makes no sense displayed alone, NYC is talking about uprooting her famous foil and displaying the pair somewhere else.
According to Ad Week, "the parties have already decided to make the pair—now considered inseparable—a permanent fixture in the New York City landscape. The only issue yet to be determined is whether they will stay in their current location, which could be redesigned, or be moved to a new one."
This is a problem, not just for the Charging Bull, but for the bull's sculptor, Arturo Di Modica, who has complained about the "Fearless Girl" since the beginning. The "Charging Bull" is designed to represent a "bull market," and it was installed in the 1980s, when Wall Street felt it was achieving world domination. In effect, the "Fearless Girl" so beloved by Elizabeth Warren, Hillary Clinton, and other skin-deep feminists, is standing in opposition to American economic success — not male oppression.

You mean big win for people that hate America and success?

Nothing but weak people running our society and especially our academic institutions. They’re putting a lot of window dressing rhetoric on it to make it seem that the reasons they’re taking it down is because the SJWs are offended by what they feel the bull represents.
Being offended by a statue is indicative of weakness... just ask Mitch.

What makes them inseparable? Wasn't the bull there long before the other statue showed up? We have some confederate war generals that we can loan them of they need something to fill the empty space

I didn't even understand the "fearless girl" being in opposition to the bull. It didn't even make sense. Is she standing up to economic prosperity? It's retarded.
And now they're "inseparable"?
Why don't they move the "fearless girl" statue and build something else to go along with it instead of removing the iconic bull.
This whole thing is liberal idiocy.

Funny side note. When you see the Bull in person, his nutsack is shiny from all the people cupping his balls to take pictures. Nice life if you can get it.
