    Every depiction? No. But such a significant one should be saved. It should stand as a reminder of the harm it did, the public acceptance of it, and the prevailing ideals in the time it stood.

    Not in a “he’s important and still worthy of being memorialized” kind of way, but in a holocaust museum kind of way.
