This country would be a lot better without the Far Right and Far Left Loonies wrecking it.





I do not understand why people think this monument is Satanic. I saw another posting that says these stones are exactly 666.78 miles from the United Nations building in NYC.



I think we have far more to worry about with Biden and the Extreme Left dividing and destroying this country from within than a grouping of stones.



It is just plain wrong and ignorant that someone choose to blow this monument up.

Though I could be wrong, it's happened two or three (trillion) times. I'm ok with that. Especially when I'm corrected. I'm always up for learning new stuff.


I think you're dead on point with your assessment. All of the articles written about their commissioned creation mention their survival of an apocalypse being intended as a guide to recover from one, along with preventing the next one.

Not true
Here's a map of how Georgia counties voted in 2020.

They weren’t satanic. This conspiracy nonsense will be the death of humanity. Ironically, these were meant to help humanity in the event of a significant loss of human population.

Well, (probably) leftists just gutted part of Taylor's platform as there are no longer stones to dismantle.

What I find interesting is that the site has 24/7 surveillance and they only show the explosion.

Enjoy your new economic reset! You'll think it's great that all your debt will be wiped out without a single brain cell committed to learning why that will NOT be a good thing!



Quoted above was in response to a question by "Suzy Q" when she asked, what is satanic about them?


Are people really that far gone to believe that a grouping of monoliths that were placed in 1980 is a symbol of the new world order, the great economic reset??



I don't get it.

A few weeks back my wife and I toured Gettysburg PA and the statues and monuments were incredible. I didn't look at the statue of General Lee on his horse Traveller and I did not see a racist loser that was still oppressing Black people but a man that gave his all for his beliefs, heritage and country. The monuments of the Union men were equally impressive.



It has to be a severe case of ignorance to want to destroy our statues, monuments and other public displays but that is what happens when the weak minded are triggered to anger, stirred to outrage and moved to action.

The stupid minority is ruining it all for the majority and this is why we cannot have nice things.

Here is the Wiki page about them.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georgia_Guidestones


Here is the news link about their destruction.

https://www.foxnews.com/us/georgia-g...-elbert-county


It seems that some people including a failed candidate for Governor in May of 2022 did not like the monument.



"The roadside attraction received renewed attention during Georgia's May 24 gubernatorial primary when third-place Republican candidate Kandiss Taylor claimed the guidestones are satanic and made demolishing them part of her platform."




How ridiculous and what a shame some far Right fools had to do this. Given the violence of the Far Left in tearing down statues that hurt their feelings and now these Far Right idiots blowing this monument up it just goes to show that we cannot have Nice things thanks to these losers.


What a shame.
Is there someone who liked the stones? Who? The stones were becoming more and more well known, even being called America's Stonehenge (they are not), and with that nickname becoming an embarrassment to the state of Georgia.

Matter of time before Georgia politicians campaigned to remove it. I believe it's on private property however. No one should vandalize private property.

Whoever did it should pay to repair it, and serve time in jail. And then those that don't like it can try to have it removed by proper legal procedures. Which might require a new Georgia law of some kind? Maybe restricting the size of 'art' structures? If these things were 5 feet tall no one would care.

Apparently this monument was expected to survive armageddon. But ironically, a large portion was knocked to rubble by some amateur ne'er do well.

Truthfully, disturbing eugenics goal aside, this thing reminds me of the "biggest pecan in the world" monument in Seguine, Texas. Sounds kind of interesting, in the downtown square, but it's actually just a statue of a pecan about the size of a watermelon. Hope nobody blows it up, though.

Those things are older than Christianity.

Any goober blowing up pre-historic relics should ponder that before embarking on their imitation of ISIS.
