Any uhh particular reason you're so worried about this? Are you too a former slaveowner who has many buildings, cities, and institutions named after him?

Come on, you know how this works. You paint the speaker as evil so people will accept it when you paint a cherish idea as evil rather than face the shame of being called a supporter of the villain.

Which cherished idea do you think is currently imperiled by recognizing that Washington was a slaveowner.

“They’re* targeting Washington so they can lull the American public into hating democracy” is QAnon level stupidity.
*”They” in this sentence represents other Americans

I'd love for you to connect the dots for me here, with specific examples. What is the progression from recognizing Washington as a slaveowner to attacking "Jefferson's and Madison's" ideas? Which ideas? And why are they so contingent on downplaying the history of slavery in this country?
