re: Why are people so upset about tearing down giant participation trophies?

It's because the ones taking them down are a mob and that mentality doesn't know how to stop. There is no rational thought of what is acceptable and what isn't. That is why you are seeing Lincoln, Washington, Jackson, Jefferson, (all winners) and Douglass (of all people) being attacked. Never give them an inch. Never show fear. Never bow. They'll hate you either way. So why choose to willingly let them walk all over you?

Who are they walking all over? Statues? Do statues even have pain receptors?

Thought process: Statues. Trophies. Participation trophies. Statues are participation trophies. Let me make a thread about this.

This would be more like having a statue of Ngo Dinh Diem in Ho Chi Minh City.

Thread not going as planned. Shift to lame and tired responses before aborting.

Wait, did they tear that down or are you calling it a participation trophy?
Well, we sure didn’t win that one.
I’m pointing out the hypocrisy of this simplistic thinking.
Memorials aren’t “trophies”.
They are to honor the bravery and sacrifice of MEN.
Because regardless of the politics or the politicians that sent them into the fray, MEN, in blue or grey, fought valiantly and their sacrifices and tales deserve to still be told.
Stop being so obtuse.

Yeah, but only the Confederate soldiers literally fought against America.

Slow down. You're gonna swallow the hook.

I look dumb and I was just trolling now!
Posted on 7/8/20 at 9:08 am to Jester
You seem to have a low moral compass and an attitude of “eh it doesn’t affect me”. The statues signify accomplishments of individuals that during that time period was significant. On the other hand, These people that want to tear everything down will eventually be at your doorstep and if not yours, it will be your kids and their kids. If these looting destructive fools hate America so much, then roll out. Go live a better life somewhere else.
