Virginia is digging up Robert E Lee's time capsule and replacing it with woke items

We are living in some sort of perverted version of 1984 right now

In a statement from Northam's office, officials said records from the Library of Virginia show that the people of Richmond contributed approximately 60 artifacts featured inside of the capsule.
Some of the objects of the old capsule are believed to have ties to the Confederacy, the governor's office said.
"This monument and its time capsule reflected Virginia in 1890—and it's time to remove both so that our public spaces better reflect who we are as a people in 2021," Northam said.
When the capsule is removed on Thursday, state officials said the original capsule will be given to the Virginia Department of Historic Resources — making room for the Commonwealth's new capsule in its place.

Some of the items include a photo of a Black ballerina taken by a local Richmond photographer in front of the statue, Kente cloth worn at the 400th commemoration of 1619, a "Black Lives Matter" sticker, "Stop Asian Hate" fliers, an LGBTQ pride pin, and an expired vial of Pfizer's COVID-19 vaccine.
"Now in 2021, this capsule gives future Virginians artifacts of the tectonic transition that has happened to us," DiPasquale said. "The pedestal marks the past and has a new message for the future: we, all of us, are the New Virginia."

I hope they put a dildo in the capsule so people 300 years from now will understand what this generation has become.

What a strange time to be alive.

That totally defeats the purpose of a time capsule.

It's a shame it won't reflect that they are better people in 2021.

Did they put the photo of Northampton in blackface in there?
Posted on 9/9/21 at 5:54 am to burger bearcat
So basically a trash can, gotcha!

This was exactly my thoughts as our future Chinese overlords dug this up seeing the "Stop Asian Hate" flyer and the vaccine vile.

They should all cut off their balls and put them in there, too since no one has any.
Posted on 9/9/21 at 6:59 am to burger bearcat
Put feinstein and pelosi in there. They look like they are 300 years old,( and throw in maxine waters as the token)

This has to be the Bee, right?
Posted on 9/9/21 at 7:02 am to burger bearcat
Governor Black Face is everything he portrays to be against.

More woke elected officials doing insane shite.
I feel like I’ve been in a bad dream for the last 18 months.

We tell people that the left is actively trying to erase history, and folks look at us with blank stares, like cattle trying to understand how an airplane works.
This is proof.
It's a perversion orders of magnitude worse than trying to remake old TV series with a "diverse" cast. They can't simply do their own thing, they have to tear down something that came before it, in an effort to topple history that they don't agree with.
A few more generations of this, and they won't even know the War Between the States even happened. Assuming there's an America left to teach, of course.
