These guys ever considering fixing a bridge instead of building a statue to pander to somebody.
Cambridge, MA, home to Harvard, is one of the most virtue signaling cities in the world. Eventually one of the City Councilors had to make a rule that they weren't allowed to talk vote about, censure, or even talk about anything unless it actually involve the city or residents of Cambridge. They could go through MONTHS of meetings censuring South Africa, treatment of women in Saudi (places they had never ever been to and no impact on their city or their job). If you complained, you were were a full blown thoughtcriminal that didn't "care enough". So everyone had to bow down to these people, until the one guy that actually did "care" about taking care of the people he was assigned to help (by fixing their roads and and schools and such) had to make a rule so they could even ATTEMPT to do their jobs.
Our values have gone pretty far when shit like this starts happening.
