Makes you think. Just what should we do with Mar-a-lago when this is all over?
it's a golf course, which is, like, environmental imperialism or something. ecological deserts, wastes of water and space.
I say we repurpose it into a nature reserve, ie rip it all out and let nature take it back unimpeded, but under our protection
Hear me out, but maybe we should properly enshrine the grave on the course.
I say move the grave/body to a proper location, considering why she was buried there in the first place.
or maybe don't if the goal is erasure of all things Trump which was my unspoken goal for the nature reserve idea. undo his 'monuments' in the most antithetical way, make him forgotten
They commit to history erasure, we do not.
There is no high ground
Is this a Florida sea level joke?
I'm going to intentionally interpret your comment in a way I don't think it was intended.
LIke the finale of Yellowstone. Hell yes.
Low income housing developments for immigrants with free citizenship classes.
maybe it stays as a golf course, but no use of pesticides, herbicides, fungicides, heavily limits on fertilizer use, no watering except collected rainwater, rainwater, and/or tertiary treated sewage, nothing motorized, and nothing electric except from more environmental sources—maybe have a few wind turbines there—and/or wp:nickel-iron batteries.
Oh, see that's much more wholesome than what I was thinking.
Pave over it and erase it from history.
It really is a shame the Confederate generals weren't lined up and publicly hanged, but then as now, power gives you access to a different tier of 'justice'.
So true and being white.
We shoulda had him hanged by his balls.
Andrew Johnson is still the worst president the US ever had. He led us to where we are today by allowing the cancer to live and eat us alive from the inside out.
That would be to peaceful. I say set him on fire and let people take turns beating out the fire. Instead he became the 1st President of Washington and Lee University.
maybe do a few years picking cotton, with ex-slaves as overseers.
Good.
Lee's more strict expectations and harsher punishments of the slaves on Arlington plantation nearly led to a revolt, since many of the enslaved people had been given to understand that they were to be made free as soon as Custis died, and protested angrily at the delay.
it doesn’t count if it’s from a terrorist leader.
