OP here. I'm a liberal lefty and shit like this pisses me off. Our art and history is part of who we are. We learn from the mistakes of our ancestors. Removing the parts of our history that some people find offensive will only make us repeat it. These idiots should be made to read 1984. Throwing everything down the memory-hole does not make the world a better place; it just makes ignorant fools of us all. This shit is no better than the Taliban blowing up the Bamiyan Buddhas or Daesh vandalising Palmyra.
