The past perhaps is faded to you but not to others. My central point can vary wherever i want it to take me, if the discussion moves to that of statues being pulled down being acceptable then i can debate that also. I'm multi faceted, just as you are
Here's the scoop, Churchill had proclivity to make racist statements. Of that there's no argument. If that's usurped by his actions against Nazi Germany ? Personally I would say it was, BUT i can listen to the viewpoint of those who would suggest it weighs differently.
Again, remind me anywhere where i have justified their actions?
I'll ask you the same as I have asked others. What are you fearful of?
Perhaps unlike others you'll answer.

I'm fearful of woke people dominating what we can say and what we can't; woke people deciding which statues can stand, who is racist and whom we are allowed to parody.
As to Churchill, remember people are influenced by their environment of the time. His pronouncements of 120 years ago are insignificant when compared with his effort in winning the war against Germany. These anarchists should not be dragging his name into the mud.
