Oh, yes. NoVA is lost to the point I think we should donate it to Maryland. I grew up east of Richmond and my family was originally from the southern part of the state (and northern NC). Even Richmond is a shell of what it used to be. They have tried to destroy Monument Avenue and hide all of the important history of the area, all in the name of DEI. One of the most egregious images to emerge from all of the chaos of 2020 was this: https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fi.redd.it%2F0hir2hwvveu61.jpg. This picture still pains me to see as I have so many memories of visiting Monument Avenue as a child.
Watching them dismantle the statue was just painful. The erasing of history. Alexandria removed statue of the confederate soldier pointing towards RVA. Actually IIRC it may have been knocked over by a car and the city refused to put it back up. That was the beginning of de-history process.

Disgusting that they wouldn't repair the statue. I hope every monument and statue is put back after the Deep State goes down. That's one of my hopes.
