The life-size sculpture near Sevnica in central Slovenia, where Melanija Knavs was born in 1970, was unveiled in 2020 during US President Donald Trump’s first term in office.
It replaced a wooden statue that had been set on fire earlier that year.
Cool, awesome, wonderful, now do the real thing…
Wood? Set ablaze.
Bronze? Sawed at the feet and stolen.
We know what must be done. Silver. Then Gold. Then platinum. All scrapped for their value. This is just a low key progression to distribute wealth for whoever wants to take it. Be best, Robin Hood vandals. Melt her down into the slag she is.
And then polonium. I wanna see someone steal that one! And then plutonium. And then uranium.
I wanna see someone steal uranium
Uh… okay?

You have a wonderful way with words.
“I Really Don’t Care, Do You?”
When was it ever appropriate to honor plagiarizing gold diggers who
spread their legsmarried a fascist with statues? If anything that really says something negative about the place it’s erected. If that’s the biggest thing they have to be proud of.Gross slut shaming vibes. You can criticize someone without moralizing, you know?
Any kind of shaming is welcome for Nazis. They don’t get the same respect as actual real people.
She’s a gold-digging whore, who has earned our disrespect.
Nazis are actual real people. It doesn’t do anybody any good to deny that human beings are capable of great evil. It only seeks to further distance ourselves from our shared history of violence and doom us to repeat it. Talk like that is exactly what leads to Nazis in the first place
Nazis are actual real people.
I could make an actual educated argument on how that’s literally not true, but it’d go into sophistry. Still, I definitely could.
Talk like that is exactly what leads to Nazis in the first place
No, it isn’t. It’s exaggerated rhetoric and a very appropriate response to legitimate Nazism.
What YOU are doing is what lead to the Nazis in the first place. Thinking you can reason with Nazis. 20th century Germany had people who basically were forced to be a Nazi, no matter their personal ideologies. It’s understandable, but it’s not acceptable. And it’s very different having been in the party when the Nazis were in rule and voluntarily choosing to be one in modern times. Choosing to become a Nazi is so much worse than being somewhat afraid in Germany in 1942, and joining out of fear for your life.
We know we’re purposefully exaggerating when we say Nazis aren’t people, and we know it. Nazis do not exaggerate with their calls to white supremacy.
So the appropriate reply to Nazism is to utterly dehumanise and shame them, as much as humanly possible.
It’s slut shaming to point out her only notable accomplishments and mention that she doesn’t deserve a statue? I don’t deserve a statue either. Am I slut shaving myself for saying that?
Do what you like, and be as freaky as you want to be. As long as everyone is consenting it’s all good by me. And fuck anyone that’s got a problem with it, because it’s none of their business.
If we are going to erect statues of sluts. Something which I am all for. We have much better sluts to choose from. Ones that contributed far more to society. Betty Page comes to mind. Hell Jenna Jameson if you want. The problem with Melania isn’t that she is a slut. So much that she’s enabled trump. And has nothing else to claim.
Don’t get me wrong I’m absolutely open to constructive criticism. And if you have some better thoughts as to what she is known for that would be better to criticize her over I would be happy to hear.
I didn’t say that she deserves a statue. She’s a horrible person. I said that you don’t have to moralize. Her being a woman that “spread her legs”, as you put it, has NOTHING to do with any of this. It’s just a thing you thought would be a low-hanging insult.
Honestly not really. The sad thing is that some of the highest fruit as far as anyone knows anything about her. That’s how undeserving she is.
I think you are hyper focusing trying to read things into other things there were never there or intended. The point wasn’t to say that she was undeserving because she did that. But only that she was undeserving because she hasn’t done anything more than that. Anything more than just about anyone else. That said after some thought I absolutely think I could have ordered it better. And can acknowledge fault in at least that much. So I will go back and try to amend it to a better state.
I like your edit. That’s something that SHOULD be criticized.
I see you and I agree with you. Just wanted to let you know.
🙂↕️
Finally, some good news. I’ve been scrolling all morning.
well, the good news is that nothing of value was lost
Practice run?
As an aussie, I find it interesting our ABC’s link for this was used. Any reason why OP?
The first article from search that wasn’t a video or just pics but a story.
Thank you for doing your due diligence.
I would imagine it’s because it hasn’t been reported on in the U.S.
That’s a big blow to Slovenia. I mean what other celebrates do they have? Slavoj Zizek?
Objectively has done more good and a better patriot to Solvenia than Melania
Oh shit Frank Gorshin was Slovenian. Replace that statue with a fucking Riddler yo. That man was the OG.
It’s Frank Gorshin’s death day today.
