Me laughing at you posting crazy is not "hating" anything

Nobody is going to be collecting old books to write fiction in place of old scholarly work.

Begin?

The “winners” historically have always rewritten the narratives to fit their agenda.

Trump will either be a hero or an absolute villain depending on how the next 20 years go in US history books.

Nice collection. Better paint you house blue so they can’t hit it with a space laser and start a fire destroying everything.

"will begin"..... Revisionist History has been going on for years....Look at "European colonialism", "native americans", "melting pot"

Netflix is a microcosm of what they are trying to do.....look at who and how they are casting influential people from the past.....

They have been doing this since Rockefeller in the early 1920’s and it kicked into overdrive after WW2.
