    Not only that, but Robert E Lee himself thought that there shouldn’t be any statues to the Confederacy. After it failed, he was of the opinion that the country should move on - not glorify that time.

    So not only were they building statues to a losing traitor, but they weren’t even following that losing traitor’s wishes on the one thing he was right about!
