Does “make America great again” not imply a desire to return to the past?

I assume it works similarly to how some of the South Carolina’s state parks work. Here, a few rice plantations were converted into parks and reserves because the loch systems in the fields are great for controlling flooding. As such, most of these parks have at the bare minimum a plague memorializing the slaves who lived there.

The statues were not erected during the actual Confederate period. They are not historical artifacts from that time. Statues serve the purpose of revering certain figures as representative of community values or as having had significant POSITIVE effects on history.

This kind of ignorance should be embarrassing. Such a shame that it’s so normalized.

Your conception of the past is a fantasy that never existed. And your conception of the present is a myth that has been sold to you by fascist propaganda.

I never gave you any insight into how I viewed the past or present. Your search for a smart comeback went up in flames.
