Experts in N American Indigenous history say this is a complete fab. 0 evidence: of widespread child sacrifice among First Ns.

It’s racist revisionism dressed up as patriotism -tells you: how far they’ll go to rewrite history to justify opp."

Oh wow - in what is the most recent example for #Musk's #AI resorting to #racism and historial #revisionism, the utterly useless #GROK now claims that #ZyklonB was used in #Auschwitz for disinfecting and not for cold-bloodedly murdering thousands and thousands of civilians.

To hell with Musk.
To hell with Grok.
To hell with the mindless resort to AI and the slop that results from this.

Putin’s obsession with history of Ukraine explained

#Putin penned history-laden pamphlet arguing #Ukrainians & #Russians are kindred nations, artificially divided by outsiders

Cherry-picked historical narratives and outright distortions were Putin’s casus belli for war

7 months later, Putin’s #Russia was #bombing #Ukraine, illegally annexing swathes of territory & killing thousands in the name of #historical #revisionism

In its campaign of “uprooting the foot soldiers,” the Trump #DOJ has fired or demoted >two dozen #Jan6 prosecutors, even as those they sent to prison walk free.

🚨 “The man once indicted for inciting the Capitol riot is now urging Congress to investigate those who tried to hold him accountable. Trump’s allies are targeting the Jan 6 probe itself—attempting to rewrite reality in real time.”

'The White House will now be “vetting”
Smithsonian museums to ensure their exhibits comply with Trump’s “vision” and
“interpretation” of history.'

#NationalPark gift shops directed to remove items that ‘disparage Americans’

#Trump officials have directed staff at #NationalParks to review all items in gift shops for *anti-American* content, according to an internal directive reviewed by The Washington Post. The move is part of the administration’s wider campaign to scrub federal institutions of “corrosive ideology” recognizing historical #racism & #sexism.

The #US government now does #bisexual #erasure. Lying about #trans people wasn’t enough, apparently.

The worst fear of every queerphobe is when cis hetero people start to feel empathy and solidarity with the #LGBTQ+ instead of hatred. That’s why they want to bury the truth. Because if the truth is out, the anti-LGBTQ+ #propaganda might stop working.
