Yeah, why think twice about whether you're following a Stalin, Franco, or Mussolini?
See, that’s a stupid way of justifying that phrase.
“You’re on the wrong side of history” implies that you have some sort of crystal ball that can see 75-100 years into the future and gauge how that time period will judge the current one. THAT is what history is.
And that’s why it’s such a trite, meaningless phrase. Sounds good to the bottom-feeders, though.

Luckily the "right side of history" isn't permanent. We've seen recently how the population's opinion of history/historical figures can change over time.

We've been doing this dance for centuries and there are some important red flags that pop up and you can say, "I remember this from somewhere" and then avoid making the same mistakes.
Or you can throw it out the window for political expediency in the present.
