Some useful reminders here about Grant, who was long hated by the Dunning School; the Dunning school's enemies are now the woke mob's enemies.

Woah Dan, how dare we celebrate those who fought in part to free America from the evils of slavery and establish a more free United States of America. Racist.

It can be true that much of the history of the US needs to be bad mouthed and how men that did good things for the country were themselves very racist and it can also be true that toppling a Grant statue is a stupid thing done by stupid people.

Grant and Sherman were war criminals who attacked civilians and tried to perpetrate genocide on Native peoples and the American bison. Of course they are admired by neoconservatives.

This calls for a really futile and stupid gesture to be done on somebody’s part
