Governor Ralph Northam -- The Blackface Enthusiast -- Further Vandalizes the Robert E. Lee Monument By Digging Up a Time Capsule from 1887 and Replacing It With Tawdry Woke Crap from Current Year

This reads like a Babylon Bee parody, but it's real.

Governor Blackface took down the Robert E. Lee statue and then decided to vandalize the time capsule buried under it, taking out objects, and replacing it with ones from this trivial but evil age:

They're going to remove a 133-year-old copper time capsule inside the pedestal and replace it with one that they say will reflect the current cultural climate in Virginia.

"The past 18 months have seen historic change, from the pandemic to protests for racial justice that led to the removal of these monuments to a lost cause," Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam said in a news release. "It is fitting that we replace the old time capsule with a new one that tells that story."

In June 2020, just days after the murder of George Floyd, Northam announced the decision to remove the Lee statue. Floyd's death sparked protests over police brutality and racism across the United States.

The Commonwealth removed the 12 ton Lee statue on Wednesday, more than 130 years after it was first installed.

The original time capsule was placed in the pedestal of the Confederate monument on Oct. 27, 1887, according to Virginia historians.

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.

"Believed to." Meaning, some woke college students made some guesses and that now becomes official state policy.

"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.

...

According to the governor's office, a group of historians, educators, artists and state officials worked together to select nearly 40 submissions to be placed inside the new time capsule.

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.

Governor Blackface is doing this. Governor Blackface.

"Coonman."

I hope Youngkin wins the gubernatorial race down there and immediately digs this piece of shit time capsule up and sends it off to a dump.

I say this with sincerity: Fuck your feelings. Despite the face he fought for his state, Robert E. Lee was an American hero who fought for his country and the Confederacy. What have you woke jackasses done to make America a better place? Nothing?

I'm not. It's a part of history. And it's never been as simple as it's portrayed, and a whole shitload of people in these places still revere people like Lee. Some for good reasons. Some not. Not my place to say which are which.

It's certainly not the place of an inveterate racist and baby killer like this chortling, glad-handing crook. Somebody should tear him up by the roots and throw him in a smelter.

73 From the sidebar:

The Left: LOL, losers don't get to dictate the terms of the winners.

The Right needs to burn that into their minds on a daily basis. When you fight a war, fight to win. Not just win the singular battle, but put the concrete in so that every battle afterwards gets easier. Terms like vandalism are just hippie words invented by losers so they can claim some sort of "moral high ground" bullshit.

110 "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.

It's astounding how much people miss the point. A time capsule is *supposed* to reflect the era in which it was packed. You open it at some time in the future and look back and think. What were their worries? What did they wear? What did they was important for me to know? How were their lives different? What do I see that I think would be better, if anything? What can I learn? What were their motivations?

But no. Just "it's old, so destroy it and replace it with something new. Shove it into a warehouse." I am stunned he didn't just have it sent to one of those big car crushers for destruction.

What's in the new one? Clothing that doesn't come from our culture. Minor historical figures. Identity politics totems. Ironically - and in a manner that's deeply depressing - it sounds like they're picking things *very* appropriate to our stupid era. What will future generations - assuming they're not like Northam, and just throw it away - think when they open this? I shudder at the thought.

They do it specifically to get people to defend confederates; it's a straw-man production process.

Any sane person saw where this was headed long ago. Robert E. Lee was an incredible individual, like him or not. I was born and raised in the north, in a state that has no connection with slavery - though it was obvious the game the communists were playing. They started with the "Stars and Bars" or the confederate battle flag, but the ultimate goal is the Stars and Stripes.

My grandparents (farmers in IL) told me from when I could understand english that our family always voted Republican because "Mr. Lincoln" saved the Union. Never Abraham, or Lincoln, or any combination. Mr. Lincoln. Their house was decorated with pictures of my family that had fought and died for the Union. The Civil War for them wasn't some dry historical theory. They were old enough to know men who fought in it.


They despised slavery to their Christian cores. The Union and Mr. Lincoln put an end to that. Period. End of story. All that said, my Grandfather read voraciously about the Civil War. Every book that came out during his life. He admired Robert E. Lee for many reasons, starting with his service to the American Army for his career. Service so distinguished that the command of the Union Army was offered to him first. Lee didn't fight to maintain slavery. He fought for Virginia, because loyalty to your State came before loyalty to your country in his mind and heart.

Don't blame Ace. He knew this was coming, as we all did.

It's simply that too many people are discouraged and isolated and that speaking up about things like this - save in like-minded groups - is impossible. I also think a lot of people believe that this is either a wave which cannot be resisted or a fever that is bound to break, and that either way, fighting back is futile.

We are witnessing the poisoned fruit of decades of general prosperity and peace - a society which will not distinguish between good and bad and which will not stand up for its own history in all of its glory and misery.

Watch any number of Hollywood period pieces about New York mid-20th-century to realize how deeply racists New Yorkers and New Jerseyans were.

Meanwhile, in rural Michigan, my MIL grew up next to a farming black family and she swears that the local farmers never said anything derogatory of that family.

In New York they were chasing people of the wrong race who provocatively rode their bike through the wrong neighborhood. And in mid-Michigan they lived in peace besides a black family of farmers.

Old men who themselves faced death from their once-countrymen, who saw friends and neighbors shot, stabbed and blown to bits who at the end of their lives were overcome by love for their fellow man, to the point of extending a hand to a former-enemy, now countrymen.

Their lesson is what the CW monuments really stood for. We are tearing down monuments to forgiveness and brotherhood. To our eternal shame.

Correct. Grant's in-laws were slave owners (Mrs. Grant seems to have been rather naive about the whole thing), and Grant's father-in-law gave Grant a slave while the latter was a civilian. Freeing a slave cost money (the government didn't want broke, newly freed slaves wandering around), so Grant - who made a lousy civilian, and had trouble earning money during that period of his life - saved up the money to free the slave at the earliest opportunity.

The current batch of loonies are trying to destroy all traces of the Civil War. There's even been at least one statue of Frederick Douglas that was torn down by a mob.

Meanwhile, in rural Michigan, my MIL grew up next to a farming black family and she swears that the local farmers never said anything derogatory of that family.

In New York they were chasing people of the wrong race who provocatively rode their bike through the wrong neighborhood. And in mid-Michigan they lived in peace besides a black family of farmers.

Slavery still exists in Africa. The people that feel that strongly about it are over there right now trying to stop it.

I can understand the need to denounce slavery, even going so far as to express revulsion in hyperbolic language, but it's wrong to virtue signal such opposition to it when you haven't gone to the lengths others have to end it. I know a jewish family who has sacrificed their american lifestyle to do just that. Their opposition consists of action not merely words.

334 The peak of the KKK membership was fueled by Yankees post WWI 20's. Check out the Great Klan Bake - the 1924 Democratic National Convention in NJ. NYC held the largest ever Klan Parade right down Madison Avenue. Seems Yankes loved hating on Southerners cuz slaves but when introduced to blacks taking all those manufacturing jobs created during WWI from white draftees the virtue needle swung in a different direction.
Posted by: Puddin Head

I think by that time, the Klan was more against immigration. There was a lot of "racial" writing about immigrants "polluting" the blood of Americans. I also think that sometime in the 1920's (1924?) there was a major reduction in legal immigration into the US.

Imagine how the first century Christians felt during their persecution. A lot of them had their doubts also.
But ultimately, If you believe that Jesus exists, that He is God who for a brief time became flesh and blood and took our punishment for sin on the cross, and that He will return, then you should also believe Him when He says that a New Earth and a New Heaven, both physical and spiritual is our inheritance.

405 There was a Moratorium on legal authorized immigration about 1924. The reason was because - wait for it - anarchists, communists, and "bomb throwers" as they were popularly known, were just a little bit too represented in the New Americans. They even set a few bombs off on Wall Street.

In those days the sane people had a lot more input into the way the country was run, at least to some extent. And thus immigration, legal and otherwise, was halted, until Hart-Cellar and Teddy Kennedy opened the floodgates in 1965.

Teddy assured us that immigration "wouldn't upset the racial balance of the country", something that was still acceptable discourse on the senate floor.

Apparently it was OK for Whitey to have his own space in those days. Teddy decided otherwise, eh?

423 A trip to Gettysburg clarifies the deeper meaning of these Civil War statues, both North and South. After the war ended both sides managed to reconcile the bloody hell of that time and erected there, monuments to it. For the North it was a celebration while for the South it is bitter, but reconcile they did. Somewhere in this idea is a shared national honor. Tearing down Lee's statue does nothing to change the history but it most certainly destroyed that brittle sense of reconciliation that over time became stronger. And that is the whole point of removing Lee and replacing the associated time capsule. Make no mistake, the people that promoted this and did this are not just ripping up history they are gearing up for a war of extermination. We are very close to partying like it's 1860 all over again.

436 I recently had occasion to meet and interact with Leslie Easterbrook, who starred as Debbie Callahan in the Police Academy movies, and her husband, Dan Wilcox, who was a writer for M*A*S*H during that show's final two seasons.

They were two of the humblest, nicest people I think I've ever met, and not at all "Hollywood". They both realized how lucky they were to have had the careers they did.

Ms. Easterbrook told me the story of her audition for the Callahan role. She was really shy and not at all aggressive, but they told her she had to be aggressive and over-the-top because that was the character. She said she scared the shit out of the people running the audition, both of whom had shocked looks on their faces and physically backed away from her.

She left the audition in tears, thinking she'd blown her chance to get the part. An hour later, a phone call saying she'd nailed it.

It's important for people to weight their own risks and benefits and until they begin to include naturally acquired immunity as a reason to defer vaccination or vaccination with two doses, I know the CDC isn't serious about science but is thinking in herd medicine terms, and not about individual optimized dosing.

482 RE: Supposed better plans for Lee post-Gettysburg

The common train among the ideas about what Lee should have done instead of returning back to the South seem to ignore that General Meade had some say in that, as well. If Lee had gone further north after Gettysburg, he'd have risked getting cut off from the CSA, trapped, and destroyed.

523 It's all black humor. And I don't mean Richard Pryor or Flip Wilson or Martin Lawrence stuff. So what symbolizes modern VA culture to these people is a pin celebrating buttseks and a vial of a vaccine that doesn't work at best and is part of a government \media op based on a virus that escaped from a lab in China that the government funded for some unknown reason? Those things probably DO symbolize modern government culture, but if I was them I wouldn't want to leave markers for the future about it. And what General Lee symbolizes is the old loyalty structure that used to be part of being a member of the "elite". He thought long and hard and decided his deepest loyalty was to his state and not the national government, and then did his honest and gentlemanly best to help his state once he made his decision. A modern "elite" would view it as what was personally best for him, and there would be a good chance of him switching sides to the one he deemed likely to win in the middle if the winning side would have him.

If they just shrug and go "well it's mandated that we make everyone get vaccinated" that is the only option I see. Maybe they'll stall with "the rule shouldn't apply for those working offsite." I don't want to go to the extra fuss to be a contractor and I don't have a strong fear of the vaccine or a religious belief that getting it is promoting infanticide. But giving in to commiecrat bullying on this would be personally demoralizing to me.

549 Sadly, for R.E. Lee no one provided him with a map showing all the Union Troops with their numbers and positions.

On July 3rd, he had a choice, gamble with Pickett's charge, or retreat and go home. he decided to gamble. Later, he told the troops the whole thing was his fault and offered to resign. "I expected too much of you" Lee told the troops. Davis rejected his offer to retire.

553 And again liberals don't understand the meaning of things. The whole point of a time capsule is so people in the distant future can see how things were, it's not to be dug up and changed everytime political ideals change. Ther smart thing to do would be leave the old one and put an entirely new one, so that future generations can see how things changed in 150 years, but liberals/ commies just want to destroy the past.

It's also funny he put a BLM sticker and a stick Asian hate flyer, maybe he should have put photos of how all the Asian hate came from blm folks.
