If you erase your history, it's easier to repeat it. You also destroy the evidence of progress, so you can run with the agenda that "nothing has changed".

Every single thing liberals do and stand for is a lie. A big part of that is not understanding, and trying to change, history.
The guy who writes Black Mirror on Netflix said he's not writing any more episodes at the moment because things are more crazy than he could write anyway.Quote:

I'm not sure why revisionist history believes until Columbus, who btw didn't actually land on what became the united states shores. The native peoples existed in harmony with each other.
Same for the true africans. or in central and south america. Humanity is brutal, and dangerous. To lay blame at the feet of Columbus and European whites in general is false.
Thank you.Quote:

Revisionist history is just more infantile bullshit.

Just like the old "words mean what I say they mean" and "from each according to his ability, to each according to his need" other liberal mealy-mouthing.
Imagine how the events of today will read in leftist-written history books in 50 years or so.Quote:
