They decontextualize everything, apply their own labels, and expect everyone else to conform to their view of reality. The 1619 Project is a very good example of Marxist decontextualization of American history. Destroying statues and other symbols they deem unacceptable is simply another form of bringing the fire to ideas and concepts repugnant to their ideology. This was never about the affront to our moral compass as a nation. This is about erasing our nation entirely as an idea and replacing it with a communist dictatorship. 

They are burning the book of America.

For Gods SAKE!

They tore down a statue of Miguel de Cervantes author of "Don Quixote".

WHY???
Because anything prior to the existence of the revolution can't be tolerated. 

Just see the context under which the Soviets were taught world history. Hell, no Russian had ever had their genome sequenced until 2010 because they deemed genetics to be a capitalist propaganda tool (because evolutionary biology is an affront to collectivist ideological constructs). 

Everything must be reframed to reflect the goodness of The Revolution while decrying and discrediting everything that does not fit. Most physics in the Soviet Union was approved via committee insofar as it obeyed the aims of the Communist Party. They can and do hijack everything in life and force it to conform or die. Not much different than a religion not yet in its reformation period.
