Council debate on ‘cancel culture’ erupts over future of St Kilda’s vandalised Captain Cook statue. The council narrowly voted against a community consultation on the ‘location and context’ of the explorer’s Port Phillip memorial.
Oh, who cares? I’d suggest that people only ever think about these old statues is when someone vandalises them with red paint.
Let's get rid of the questionable statues and instead get some great street art to replace them.
Why is anyone invested in a statue of Captain Cook? It's not like anyone living knew him? What does it do to these people, play with their childhood? Is this just conservatives not wanting anything to change, yet again? Clinging to the past because out of fear.
Get rid of the mouldy old statues, get some modern art to replace them.
