Congresswoman Informs Marjorie Taylor Greene, ‘Robert E. Lee Was Not Actually One of the Founding Fathers’
Rep. Chellie Pingree (D-ME) informed Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) that Robert E. Lee "was not actually one of the founding fathers" on Thursday.
You're viewing a single thread.
it also says in the article
Greene did not say that Lee was a founding father
i hate news websites like this and i hate reddit and by extension lemmy
STOP UPVOTING CLICKBAIT YOU DIDN'T READ
Lemmy as a real issue with a lot of random no-name news websites being posted to it tbh
You mean "bad moderation and lack of tools for doing it well".
For a second there I thought I was back on Reddit.
She didn't say that directly. She insinuated that the Democrats were trying to remove monuments of the founding fathers, and immediately followed that statement with: "Just like they did with the statue of Robert E. Lee," in Charlottesville. The representative from Maine was merely responding to her entire statement.
The article title is correct, it just wasn't as much of a burn as you'd like. The calling out did happen, but was just a bit misplaced since Greene didn't explicitly make the offending statement.
Also Greene is dumb and I'm sure is still confused about what a founding father is.
