More than 1,000 people have signed a petition to Nix The Tank and additional public consultations about the future of the park are set for the coming months.
You have no respect at all for people who served and died, and it shows.
You’re the exact type of person that would go “don’t record the horrors in the deathcamps, we should remember them not memorialize them”.
A memorial is supposed to serve as a reminder of what to avoid, not cater to your or anyone else’s current nonsensical ideologies or sensitivities.
It exists to inform and prevent acceptance of war, not to portray a ‘rewarding sacrifice’ when people are thrown into the meat grinder.
Your complete lack of understanding of this issue or your wilful mischaracterization is absolutely abhorrent and shows a total lack of respect and critical thinking education or a total lack of empathy, ignoring the suffering of others in order to pursue your own agenda.
I think the presence of a tank in a park facilitates acceptance of war - it does not prevent acceptance of war. That’s where I’m coming from. Monuments should be about remembering the sacrifices that were made in the service of larger causes (that’s what I meant by “important”), the lives lost, and preventing war. I think we’re just disagreeing on the effects of a tank in a park

I agree. Crosses at memorials remind us to avoid religion and bikes on the side of the road remind us to never leave our cars.
