Please someone tear this down in the middle of the night. Billy Graham was an utter shitheel.
paint it in rainbow-colored glitter paint, too.
Lipstick and eyeshadow at a minimum.
What a time to be alive. First the Higgs, now a wormhole to 1950.
The US is a recurring parody of itself. I wonder how much and how many his estate paid to get this.

That may be the most darkly hilarious and accurate way that I’ve heard my country succinctly described.
FWIW, I think this is a combination of Republicans wanting to put a Christian Evangelist statue in the capitol building (personal note: barf, amongst other things), and Democrats doing their wrongheaded olive branch crap for Republicans, who will not care and continue to politically backstab them because Republicans at this point want to run everything, for good.
This is a statue of a deeply flawed “civil rights” activist who was staunchly against women’s and gender (specifically, homosexual rights). He also said some deeply antisemetic (in the classical “final solution”-ish sense, not the modern “you said something that could be remotely construed as unflattering towards Israel” sense) stuff when conversing with Nixon at one point (later renounced, but who really knows tbh).
More TL;DR: fuck Christian evangelists, categorically.

With his close friend Richard Nixon’s ascendance to the presidency, Graham advised that Vietnamization was the key to victory in his “Confidential Missionary Plan for Ending the Vietnam War.” In addition, while he publicly gave lip service to being apolitical, Graham organized massive events that provided veiled support for Nixon and the war in Vietnam.
Well this will be by satisfying yo melt down
The 7-foot (2.13-meter) tall statue is one of two that North Carolina and each state get to place on display inside the hall or elsewhere in the Capitol to honor notables in their history. The process for Graham’s statue to replace one of North Carolina’s began nine years ago.
North Carolina bringing their best and brightest…?
Ummm separation of state and religion…
Inbred degenerates.
Barf.
Each day I find a new way to feel like a complete outsider in my home country.
Blame North Carolina.
One time, Walgreens had a charity thing where they sold clown noses and I got one, got a boost from a friend, and put the clown nose on Jefferson Davis.
Everyone who tours Cap. Hill should try it with all the horrible statues in that room.
