Some spaghetti person was spamming Boston 311 with complaints about this including:

I guess we should cancel all History that is taught in class because it’s being rewritten right in front of us

And

Stop marking my case closed. fix the problem you useless scumbags. Our statue was demolished. We want it repaired and replaced. If this happened in Dorchester and Roxbury you’d fix it. What do our lives not matter? You people better respond and you better tell the useless mayor.

They would absolutely not fix it in Roxbury, what is he talking about? This is literally just because Black people live in Roxbury, isn’t it?

100% because black people live there. It’s one of the most neglected and underserved neighborhoods, the idea that the city would trip over itself to fix a statue there is absurd.

The disgraced former governor of Rhode Island, Buddy Cianci, used to say Italo-American (pronounced it-uh-LOW). I guess because “afro-american” was a popular phrase at the time?

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
