In this text, I will write thoughts about fire and destruction of the museum artifact around the world. So this writing is not handling only to the destruction of the National Museum of Brazil. The meaning is to write more about the reasons why somebody would want to destroy museums in purpose, but we would not yet know is the burning of the Brazilian national museum made by purpose, or is it an accident. Sometimes the reason for the intended destruction of the museum is of course caused by the will of buying the landscape, but sometimes the reasons are more complicated what people ever think.
The destruction of the national museum of Brazil is the very sad thing. Many extremely unique merchandise in that house have been destroyed forever, and now the Brazilians are blaming the fire extinguishers and another kind of things about this destruction. The reason for the fire is not known, but the investigations are begun. The destructions of the museums are always a very sad thing because their merchandise is unique and invaluable.
If the reason for the fire is arson, that would cause terrible things in the people mind. The person, who makes that kind of crimes can be some pyromaniac, who wants to make the end of that museum. Sometimes those persons, who burn museums are some kind of religious fanatics, who want to destroy the pagan artifact. But there could be some other reasons for those crimes, and behind those actions could be some kind of populistic politicians.
The motive could be fake the history of the nation, and that’s why all the artifact from the history must be destroyed. They must be replaced by the new version of the history of the nation. When the museums have been destroyed, there will start to find the new artifact, what would lead those persons for thinking about the “great history of the nation”. And this would be the very good thing in the hands of the populist politician.
Populistic politicians have always good excuses for the solutions to the national problems. And one of those excuses is militarism and powerful police force. Those things offer the great opportunity to give jobs to people, and if the military force would grow too powerful, will the good way to make them full-time jobs is attacking to the neighbor lands.
Dictators would aleẃays give bad solutions, and sometimes those persons have released slaves only for hiring them to their police force or army. The reason why the British empire released slaves in 19th. century is that they wanted to recruit those persons into the army. The Union, or Northern States campaign for releasing the slaves in the Southern States or Confederate was that the military leaders wanted to create the rebel army in the Confederate land. So the reason for that was not pure need to be humanitarian.
And that’s why those states began the campaigns for liberal ideology. Of course, the roots of those people were very romantic, and the stories were told about free Africa and free people in the savannas. That would be meant for cheer the rebellion in the area of the Confederate states. But the Union was more liberal about those things, and then releasing those slaves was the most important part of the history of the United States. After that, the racial separation disbanded in the Southern States until the 1960’s. So the advantage was very slow, and the attitudes of the people changed very slowly.
