SkaturnijaR

Francais.

We spend much time behind our computer screens. We do to spread information, to learn and in fact to stay sane and feel that we actually do something that matters.

Yesterday our dear Skatyrne read this post and was inspired by it to make a similar memorial himself, and – not waiting a moment too long – today he did, and was kind enough to send a photo of it to me. Thank you very much for that, Skatyrne! 

The text says, in the most beautiful language in the world: “In memory of the millions of human beings who fell victim to Communism”.

It is located in a park in Sweden, right next to a pathway, where it will be seen by many passersby.

Being a bit slow myself, and attached to my PC like a piece of metal to a huge magnet, I have to say that when I see this work by Skatyrne I finally understand just how brilliant it is and is inspired to do something similar myself.

What if many of us did similar things? Every now and then, at least? It is not illegal. It is not offensive. It just reminds people of the fact that many were murdered under Communism. We could do the same for those who fell victim to Christianity too, or other vile ideologies. It might be good to do so in a world that is only reminded of the evil done by European men.

From now on, whenever somebody makes a statement or memorial like that, please photograph it and send it to me. I will do my best to publish or in other ways use any such photos I receive, hoping they will inspire others to do the same. Make sure though that you don’t break any laws when doing this. Don’t give the enemy any excuses to claim we are law-breakers.

HailaR SkaturnijaR! HailaR Leuke!
