NYT WHAT SHOULD WE DO WITH CONFEDERATE MONUMENTS? THE CULPRITS BEHIND WHITE FLIGHT

What should we do with Union monuments either?
I say destroy them too, to really be consistent.

They were all racists, too.

The culprit behind white flight: Abraham Lincoln.
Why candy coat it?
 
Here's Lincoln, for example, the great emancipator. He really won the Presidency based on the single plank of getting rid of the blacks. That is why the overwhelming majority of white Northerners voted for him in the first place. They cared little about freeing them, frankly. They really wanted them gone. Lincoln catered, shamelessly, and unapologetically, to that voting bloc:

"I will say then that I am not, nor ever have been in favor of bringing about in any way the social and political equality of the white and black races,-- that I am not nor ever have been in favor of making voters or jurors of negroes, nor of qualifying them to hold office, nor to intermarry with white people; and I will say in addition to this that there is a physical difference between the white and black races which I believe will for ever forbid the two races living together on terms of social and political equality." Abraham Lincoln, 4th Debate. See also his Reply, 1st Debate.

He's either a nonracist liar and voter betrayer here, or he's a racist and voter betrayer:  You take your pick. Either way, he's a voter betrayer.

Lincoln's betrayal here is only matched by a few other Presidents in history. You can count them on one hand. Take a guess who they are. You can now count Trump in this short list.
 

Call it the New Globalist Iconoclasm, getting rid of monuments.

Protestant Reformation inspired, really.
