The talibanesque destruction of all which is not “appropriate” will not stop. Don’t care about statues? Old films? Don’t feel left out. They’ll keep going until it’s something you do care about. You can warm yourself by the bonfire of the vanities in the meantime.
In the meantime, if your parents enjoyed Gone with the Wind, turn yourself in for a re-education top-up. Can’t be too careful.

Should we be surprised that some of those supporting the destruction of historical artifacts and works of art are apparently "historians," or was that predictable?
