Statue of U.S. sailor kissing nurse vandalized with '#MeToo'

Let's parse this a little bit more: as a piece of history, it's iconic for the jubilation, the celebration, the joy (though my parents said they stayed inside for the couple of days after the war was declared over just because people were so wild). As a romantic photograph, it's incomparably wonderful for capturing the expression of who America was at that time, the joy and relief felt, and what may have been a returning soldier finding his love. As truth, it doesn't meet all that criteria--thus, the clash of art and reality.

The metoo movement lost its credibility when they began demanding that every woman should be unquestioned, and believed, regardless of how unbelievable that particular woman's claim may be. People are people, and sometimes people lie. If you demand that people not be questioned, more people will take advantage of the situation and lie more often. Just as some people may chose to deface a statue in order to intimidate anyone from questioning anything a woman claims. The vandal of this statue should be ashamed of themselves.
