I've asked this question before but it just occurred to me again. What if what we know about ancient cultures is all lies. Because the writings we've found are from the Fox News or Breitbart of the time. How can we really believe we know anything about ancient history?
What is included in and excluded from the modern Bible was the result of, well, politics. “Heresy” was the original “fake news”.

Of course. But I'm talking about actual historical source documents. Tablets, scrolls, books of the time, whatever. Never forget, Jaime Lannister died defending his queen.

My point stands. What was written had a political viewpoint. What was canonized had a political viewpoint.
