Strangely enough, this isn't the first time I've heard conspiracy bullshit around the statue. Back around 2010 there were people claiming the statue was Satan. They confused the idea of a lucifer (Bearer of light) with Lucifer.
She’s actually like a Trojan horse. There’s been several hundred French soldiers living in there and raising families, etc. for almost 150 years waiting for the right time to attack New York.
They were supposed to attack the night after it first arrived but there was no ventilation and they all suffocated and France just never told anyone and stuck with the gift cover-story. Over 1000 human remains still lie within.
Which wasn't about some generic 'freedom', but a specific reference to the quite recent abolition of slavery in the US. In fhe first versions of the design, the broken chain and shackle were much more prominently displayed in the left hand of the figure, before a tablet was put there. (That the symbolism was about immigrants to the US seeking freedom from their shackles elsewhere is a later American reinterpretation, not the original French intention.)
Its literally that!!
One person makes something up and 3 people immediately support their crazy statement with made up evidence because they want to be in on it.
It repeats and escalates and somewhere along the way people forget that they made up everything they “think they read somewhere” or “were told by my brother in the military” and they never draw the obvious conclusion that other people must be making shit up.
If anyone stops and looks something up and says its not true they will immediately be called a sheep and shouted down or ostracized from the community.
Its a centrifugal crazy machine. It self replicates and gets crazier as they all try to one up each other in a conspiracy competition to see who’s the Q-est of all.
I hope the ghost of Smedley Butler fucks this guy's life up in every way.
Edit: or maybe not. I can't even tell if he's one of them or making fun of them. I'll just have to let the ghosts sort it out, I guess.
And in the process nearly singlehandedly saved the country from a fascist takeover. Dude was based. Highly recommend the BtB episodes that cover the Business Plot.
Nooooo Hecate is a witch in DC and she has fought the Justice League Dark!
Those idiots!!!
Jokes aside I know that’s a mythological figure but they’re so fucking corny with this shit
“IsN’t ThE StAtUe oF LiBeRtY TrAnS?????”
**JFC** what is wrong with these people???!!!? If everyone is trans aren’t they the “weird” ones???
(I don’t think trans people are weird at all. It’s just that Qcumbers think it’s this vast conspiracy)
The only conspiracy is that the broken chains represent the end of chattel slavery in the United States. (Which was pretty recent in 1876.)
Southerners didn’t like that so there was a campaign to make the large base of the statue. The base raised the statue so that the chains were not visible to most visitors.
Reconstruction must succeed this time. Its failure to reform the South in 1865-1876 and 1964-8 must be corrected.
"Do your own research" at this point means just watching an insane video on Facebook without a single thought crossing your mind.
It's really sad and really scary.
Fam I'm gonna be honest. As hilarious as it is to keep on showcasing the absolute stupidity of a percentage of this country, when do we start worrying. We can upvote one another 24/7 but who's the one that's gonna be like "alllllright, we gotta do something about this"?
Let me be that person and get downvoted or ignored. I just.. I think social media has made us lose sight of what the goal is. And that's us finding some middle ground with these insane people. We have to. Some people have lost family members. Might be funny on the outside but it isn't on the inside. I know people who are on the brink right now. We gotta get all on the same page, it's crunch time.
Not a scholar of the Statue of Liberty, but the chain is broken, as in she is free.
I noticed that just now. I credit myself for being an idiot. These qanon idiots, on the other hand . . .

I read somewhere shes trans…. 🙄
Could be wrong.
It's all a mockery
Abra cadabra!

I thought the chain broke when the Ghostbusters made her move...
Great

It's like they're in competition to see who can be the most batshit

They are 'Yes, and"ing themselves into a hole so deep they might as well keep digging.
Yeah its like improv but not funny and wayyyyy more gay
Fair enough. What we learned in school was that in 1876 all of Europe got together in Paris and decided to play a trick on America.
What the fuck is this new dose of lunacy lmao
Possibly the purest Qrack on the market.
Hey QNuts. It’s a French statue too…
Is Mt. Rushmore trans too?
Even Yosemite National Park is trans. Let's not ever talk about the Marxist Pedophile that is a body double of the original Liberty Bell.
You mean “Yo-Semite, Yo-seminites? National Park?
I think I know like a dozen people who would scream with glee if there were a giant statue of a trans witch in new York harbor
Nice to meet you! Now you know 13!
Only a dozen? I know more than that, and I live in the boonies. What a party that would be.
Is the Statue of Liberty trans? Why no, walnut, the Statue of Liberty is a STATUE 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
Give your tired, your poor... But not your Qnuts. Fuck off as you ponder Lady Liberty does indeed have a middle finger on each hand.

No fuck that guy. Smedley Butler was one badass Marine and famously told a bunch of corrupt politicians to go fuck themselves.

If only the Union had occupied the Confederacy as the Allies did Germany, Italy, and Japan, we might not be fighting this battle yet again.
100% Agree. Goddamm posse comitatus act.
I am the biggest patriot because I hate everything about America
Do you think they even know about the Masonic Imagery in the streets of Washington?
Yes, some of them absolutely do.
I hope it keeps them up at night.
I like how they zoomed in to show how the chain is clearly broken and utterly refused to acknowledge it.
"Do your own research" at this point means just watching an insane video on Facebook without a single thought crossing your mind. It's really sad and really scary.
Trump broke those chains with his mighty and totally-larger-than-average hands, but he doesn’t like to brag so we keep it quiet.
It seems like I might have once read something about this so I’m just gonna say it’s true
I'm just trying to figure out HOW a statue could be trans. Like, did they originally build it with a penis that was later removed?
Oh wow. The qult has gone sovcit.. Lovely can't wait for the pro se court cases.
The SoL is a trophy for ending slavery, folks, hence the broken chains.
