I am pretty clear on what I am saying.
The written word in a piece of fiction or art is a subtle subject. It is open to interpretation and differing viewpoints. But for me there is an ideological point of view that is being manifest by removing the award name. And this view is primarily is based on the interpretation of self selected few.
Civil war statues for me are different. Slavery was not an abstract concept. It wasn’t trying to decipher meaning from a set of words. It was the physical imprisonment of fellow human beings for personal economic profit.
For me everyone has the right to free speech within the bounds of the law. It stops for me when that manifests itself in physical deprivation of life and liberty.
And the symbols which memorialize the losing side of that particular debate are not sacrosanct. Actually the inverse is true.
But that’s enough of what I think. And would prefer if folks made their points and left me out of it. I’m not here to debate individuals. It’s against the TOS of CC.
