I sreiously fail to understand why libtards are sad that a victor "white washes" (a racist term for, makes their history look good) their past.
1. it makes the new generation feel proud of good things, not proud of rape and pillaging
2. who cares about the old generations "feelings"
3. thinking your nation was founded on goodness and niceness, does not make you more inclined to start wars in the future. id argue that it makes you want to start less.
So whats the deal? I mean if it isnt just lefty IDpolitics designed to shame and argue with people at the dinner table?

The reason "whitewashing" is bad is because if you do not consider past errors you have no chance to learn from them and avoid making those same mistakes. Come on bro. Stop pouring out this nonsense, no clue where you get these ideas from.
Fact is the citizens are lead to believe the country is founded on niceness, the ones that run the same citizens into wars know better and are not practicing these benign thoughts of goodness that people are indoctrinated to believe by the modern media and politicians that use this naivety to their advantage. Ignorance is not bliss. It's not.

Edit: We teach about how we killed all the Indians after Thanksgiving etc...we don't act like the old chief is telling out children wild tales in 2017. But we were more fucked up in the immediate aftermath of killing Native Americans. The point is: Japan is still pretty silent on how it provoked aggression in WW2 unless you in college politics or something.

Don't get me started on pointing out the things the US schooling system teaches us as children yet happens to leave out. They teach us nothing about false flags, about how our country undermines and destroys working governments in other countries to further influence the economics to better favor the USA even if that means it ruins said country when we dismantle their governments etc.
So much actual history that is not taught to us as citizens of this country (USA) it's only when you seek out information on your own do you find the truth. If you only read what you are taught in school and what is touted across your TV screens daily you are choosing to live in ignorance because rarely is the whole picture or even part of the picture actually being shown.
The problem with Americans is they only watch channels that say what they want to believe, people by default choose to live in their own fantasy worlds instead of being open to the fact reality just might not be what is shown on their favorite TV channels or written on their favorite extremist websites. If you only read one side of the story chances are you aint getting the whole story.
I see a lot of intelligent people on these forums that are adept at spouting information they believe and think is true but this doesn't make them informed especially when they restrict themselves to only learning from sources that present a narrative that appeals to them.
Basically the majority of what I read on this thread is horseshit that is spouted by one extremist view or another. Not one bit objective purely subjective.
