It's motte and bailey with everything these people do. "We're just trying to get rid of monuments to treason and literal slavery and oppression of black people, why do you have a problem with that?" to "Founding Fathers? They were slave owners too! Fuck monuments to white soldiers and old white men in general! And actually, fuck the ones for black soldiers too!"They already are.
It's an old tactic. If you want to tear down a target (say... America) you don't start at the strongest point (the founding fathers), you start at the weakest point (confederates) and then chip away from there, steadily eroding support until the strong point eventually becomes the weak point.
Probably whatever native tribe was squatting there when it became Washington. Don't the CHAZ larpers constantly have to remind themselves of it?Which reminds me, when they inevitably start to memoryhole George Washington what do you think they'll rename Washington State to?
