"To reflect history and diversity"

Just in time for Black History Month

“Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book has been rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered…History has stopped. Nothing exists except the endless present in which the party is always right” — George Orwell

Jackson was one of the GOATs. The best state in the union is ours because of him. Move him up to the $100 imo

 

[fckrajina1982]

it is money chill i mean i can think for mmy self i don't need libs to tell me this one is more important then people who created and build country. if more people would ignore but fight logicly their shock and aww policies and b.s. they would not have ammo for them being for people and everybody against. i mean call a spade a spade simbolic gestures are always that simpbolic and fake no substance behind no good will behind just simpbolic

Not something i would spend time or resources on in todays corona climate but i guess you got to get that pandering in before you do anything smart

 

[ShadowRun]

lol you would think more time and resources would me spent on dealing with a failing economy, during a deadly epidemic but hey ... virtue signaling is a all time high

 

[Social Distance Warrior]

I hope they changed the original version they were going to do. that one was incredibly unflattering.



now this one...this is one I can get behind.

 

[PolishHeadlock2]

This was supposed to happen 4 years ago lol

 

[Staph infection]

Yep, this is how money should be spent.

One of the things communists do is remove history and destroy statues.

Orwell was a democratic socialist and would most likely be for this. That quote has more to do with fascists like Trump and all the world leaders he respects (other fascists).

go look for a Ben Shapiro tweet instead. He’s more your speed.

Sherfronters aren’t going to like this at all. They want us to celebrate and remember the Confederates and racist historical figures but as soon as you start to bring up slavery and segregation they’ll be quick to tell everyone to “get over it.” and they’ll start calling everyone SJW and shit.

 

[cottagecheesefan]

Don't mind at all. If it at all placates the masses, go for it.

I do think it is an empty gesture though and won't change any social problem/issue.

Money is being printed all the time, so it isn't like this will(should) cost the government anything. I just hope the picture is well done, and the bill looks good.

 

[GolovKing]

Harriet Tubman wasnt the prettiest woman. I think frederick Douglass or mlk had faces that would look better on a dollar bill. Just being honest

Biden isnt going to be personally drawing the picture and printing the money out.

 

[MichiganMMA1978]

So... Can we not call cash "dead presidents" any more?






Might as well just change all the denominations to fairytale characters or something, so nobody is offended.

Its just a quick bill that will pass

Bunker Boy halted it, its not a time consuming effort

 

[Scrody]

Eisenhower should be on the $20 imo

 

[Big Nasty Edison]

Here come the crocodile tears from people who just learned who Andrew Jackson was today.
