Berlin Wall relic gets a 'second life' on US-Mexico border as Biden adds barriers - eviltoast

As the U.S. government built its latest stretch of border wall, Mexico made a statement of its own by laying remains of the Berlin Wall a few steps away.

The 3-ton pockmarked, gray concrete slab sits between a bullring, a lighthouse and the border wall, which extends into the Pacific Ocean.

May this be a lesson to build a society that knocks down walls and builds bridges,” reads the inscription below the towering Cold War relic, attributed to Tijuana Mayor Montserrat Caballero and titled, “A World Without Walls.”

    Good point, nicely done, and nobody in the US will care. The politicians in charge know this point already, that IS the point. They don’t give a shit about the wall, they want to rile their racist base so that they vote for them
