The Buddhas of Bamyan & Conservatives


*Political Editorial*

From Wikipedia:

“The Buddhas of Bamyan were two 6th-century monumental statues of Gautama Buddha carved into the side of a cliff in the Bamyan valley in the Hazarajat region of central Afghanistan, 230 kilometres northwest of Kabul at an elevation of 2,500 metres.”

They were built in 544 AD, and became an UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2003.

They were destroyed by the Taliban in 2001.

Conservatives of low moral repute are attempting to compare destruction of recent statues to racist conservative slavers to the destruction of the Buddhas of Bamyan.

Yet the differences are numerous.

  1. The Buddhas of Bamyan were religious artifacts. Statues of slaving conservative racists are not.
  2. The Buddhas of Bamyan were thousands of years old. Statues of slaving conservatives racists are not.
  3. The Buddhas of Bamyan never enslaved anyone or espoused racist views
  4. The Buddhas of Bamyan were a UNESCO Cultural Heritage site. Statues of conservative slaving racists are not.

    5. The Buddhas of Bamyan represent an a religion, while the statues of racist slaving conservatives represent a horrid ideology.

There is no valid comparison between the destruction of The Buddhas of Bamyan and the morally upstanding removal of statues dedicated to racist slaving conservatives.
