but do really think youve been as selfish as someone like wiston churchill?

And also the thing is that even those selfless parents are more worthy of having a statue built in their honor AND STILL ....humanjty chooses the most selfish and genocidal people ever to honor time and time and time again

    I don't know lots about Churchill, even though I should because I'm British.

    Yeah sometimes statues get built of people who aren't too great. Like George Washington, who owned slaves. I guess statues are usually commissioned and paid for by wealthy and powerful people who are trying to propagandise their viewpoints, because if ordinary people believe the propaganda of the powerful, then the powerful get to stay in power.
