The discussion touches on the purpose of Confederate statues as a way for "common white folk" to re-establish their narrative after the Civil War. The hosts argue that the modern establishment has "outsourced" the role of "Miss Anne" to writers like Caitlin Greenidge. They critique the practice of using people who look black but have no cultural connection to the community to formulate social narratives.
The segment compares current American unrest to Mao Zedong's Cultural Revolution, which sought to eradicate the "Four Olds": old ideas, culture, customs, and habits. Parallels are drawn between the renaming of streets (Black Lives Plaza) and the destruction of historical monuments. The hosts suggest these tactics are being used to remove "old white men" from the power structure.
Mo'fax shares his "hot take" on Confederate monuments, arguing they should be removed because the Confederacy fought against the United States and lost. However, he criticizes the "mission creep" of protesters targeting the Washington Monument and other founders. He suggests auctioning the statues or melting them down to make guns for the GBG campaign rather than allowing chaotic destruction.
