According to progressive doctrine, it is racist not to expunge Indians from American culture. Leftist bullies have imposed name changes on sports teams and iconic landmarks like Squaw Peak in Phoenix. They deleted the Indian maiden from butter packaging. They even canceled the crying Indian from the old public service ads that encouraged us not to litter. Now they are purging Indians from museums:

History lovers slammed the American Museum of Natural History for shuttering all its Native American-related displays Friday, with one disappointed historophile saying the now-empty major exhibition halls and display cabinets show “history being made secret.”

Museum director Sean Decatur explains why nearly 10,000 square feet of exhibition space that featured Indians now stands empty:

“The halls we are closing are artifacts of an era when museums such as ours did not respect the values, perspectives and indeed shared humanity of Indigenous peoples.”

That is, Indians have been canceled because moonbattery.

Again the federal government imposes wokeness:

The alterations are a response to new federal regulations that went into effect this month regarding the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act…

In Ray Bradbury’s Fahrenheit 451, firemen don’t put out fires; they start them, burning down houses in which books have been discovered. Likewise, in our real life dystopia, museums don’t preserve history; they erase it.

Future generations will hardly know that Indians existed, another aspect of American heritage having been senselessly destroyed by the cultural vandalism of liberal social engineers.

The Democrat campaign to eradicate America by erasing its history has suffered a rare setback:

The National Park Service on Monday reversed its decision to tear down a statue of Pennsylvania founder William Penn at a historic park just days after a widespread public backlash against the Biden administration agency’s move began online.

The idea was to replace the revered hero Penn — whose only crimes were to be Caucasian and to represent American heritage — with taxpayer-funded propaganda celebrating Stone Age savagery.

The original plan to remove the statue in order to create a more “welcoming, accurate, and inclusive experience for visitors” was widely panned and ridiculed.

That ridicule must be relentless. Leftists were never likely to stop with statues of Robert E. Lee. All great Americans will be erased if we do not push back.

Despite having been extinct for millions of years, not even dinosaurs are beyond the reach of social engineers. A Tyrannosaurus rex skeleton has been declared to be transsexual:

The Chicago Field Museum, where the T. rex lives and tweets, justified this lunacy on the spurious grounds that it is quite difficult to determine the sex of old dinosaur specimens (it’s not even certain if such creatures had true external genitalia at all). Therefore, as curators did not know for sure whether the specimen was a boy-lizard or a girl-lizard, they made the insane leap in logic that it was actually a trans one.

The dinosaur goes by the name SUE (all cap, possibly to distinguish from the Johnny Cash song) and uses gender neutral pronouns.

After the skeleton proclaimed itself nonbinary,

SUE was being moved to another exhibition space, which online activists realised meant it would need all its labels rewritten. Queer lobbyists contacted the museum demanding the T. rex now adopt gender-neutral pronouns permanently on the grounds that “Misgendering SUE didn’t just misrepresent the dinosaur, it risked invalidating the credibility SUE’s pronouns had given to nonbinary individuals.”

Everything everywhere must primarily focus on ramming depravity down people’s throats — even paleontology, which LGBTists have taken to calling gay-leontology to emphasize their campaign to subvert the field and subordinate it to their agenda.

The social engineers are coming after Roman emperors now:

The North Hertfordshire Museum has said it will be “sensitive” to the purported pronoun preferences of the third century AD ruler Elagabalus (also known as Heliogabalus).

Classical texts claim that Elagabalus asked to be called “lady” and asked to be termed wife, mistress and queen.

When a society begins to decay, degeneracy sets in among the people in charge. Rome was no exception. Tiberius was a pedophile. Caligula’s excesses are still infamous. However, in the case of Elagabalus, this may have been character assassination.

Cassius Dio, a Roman chronicler, wrote that Elagabalus was “termed wife, mistress and queen”, told one lover “Call me not Lord, for I am a Lady”, and asked for female genitalia to be fashioned for him.

However, Cassius Dio served the following emperor Severus Alexander, who took the throne after the assassination of Elagabalus.

One historian suggests that the accounts use his reputedly deviant behaviour as a justification for his assassination.

According to Cambridge classics professor Andrew Wallace-Hadrill,

“The Romans didn’t have our idea of ‘trans’ as a category, but they used accusations of sexual behaviour ‘as a woman’ as one of the worst insults against men.”

As well they might. It is inherently disgusting for men to behave like women. This has been understood throughout the world and throughout history.

Nonetheless, the North Hertfordshire Museum proclaims it will now refer to Elagabalus as “she” — a politically motivated lie.

Liberal Democrat councillor and executive member for arts at the Lib Dem and Labour coalition-run North Herts Council, said: “Elagabalus most definitely preferred the she pronoun, and as such this is something we reflect when discussing her in contemporary times.”

Rome now has its first woman emperor. Congratulations to Elagabalus for breaking the glass ceiling 1,800 years after he died.

Museums are supposed to preserve our heritage. In a world run by progressives, they disfigure and destroy it.

Nothing is sacred to moonbats except moonbattery. They might find the Roman Empire guilty of toxic masculinity and cancel it altogether, so that future generations will never know it existed.

It doesn’t suffice for the giants of American history to be erased. First, their memory needs to be desecrated:

The statue of Confederate General Robert E. Lee that once stood in Charlottesville, Virginia, was secretly melted down at a ceremonial event.

Everyone knew that taking down statues of this great man would not be enough, because so long as progressives encounter minimal resistance, nothing is ever enough — not even this:

The Washington Post reported that “Swords Into Plowshares,” a project led by University of Virginia religious studies professor Jalane Schmidt and Charlottesville’s Black history museum executive director Andrea Douglas, “will turn bronze ingots made from molten Lee into a new piece of public artwork to be displayed in Charlottesville. They made arrangements for Lee to be melted down while they started collecting ideas from city residents for that new sculpture.”

The great man who fought honorably for his homeland Virginia was denounced as “White supremacist toxic waste.”

Coercively funded government media tells us to approve of our history being defiled and flushed away:

NPR also covered the event and credited Swords Into Plowshares for its efforts to “create a more inclusive public art installation.”

That which you don’t defend will be taken from you. Americans have failed to defend their heritage.

Other great Virginians (e.g., George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, George Mason) will meet the same fate and for the same reason. This process is already underway.

No great American will be spared, not even Lee’s adversary Abraham Lincoln.

In compensation, future generations will be offered George Floyd to venerate and emulate.
