    A leftist narrative of American history is comprised largely of extremely well-documented episodes, which a cursory Wikipedia search could establish, and which make you sound like an absolute crackpot if you try to convince normal people they happenedhttps://twitter.com/TheEpicDept/status/1347230957213020162 …

    "I can't wait till my kids read about this stuff in the history books 😂" A few years ago during a poli sci class I mentioned that time the city of Philadelphia bombed itself and almost an entire room full of college students had never heard of it. A few accused me of lying

        Remember that actual coup whereby a white mob was so incensed that a black person might have political power that they literally overthrew a democratic election and erased all existence of it even in the town? Cause That happened. 122 years ago.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LVQomlXMeek …

        ppl keep bringing up reconstruction in comparison to today and i’m like hm are we sure guys? i feel like the current batch might look at that and think “well the country survived it, so”

        Replying to @em_aytch

        To the extent that most people in this country are taught about Reconstruction at all I'm pretty sure they're taught that the "compromises" that ended it were good, lol

        oh my god dude convincing people even that colonialism exists is like pulling fucking teeth the historical record of the CIA alone is absolutely breathtaking, and that's just the shit that they're explicitly ok with us knowing about

        Basic propositions like "most countries that hate us are responding to something we did" are absolute nonstarters

        Not American but occasionally I think about the Battle of Blair Mountain and how railroad/mining tycoons had actual US soldiers called in to put down a miner’s strike. The Air Corps dropped bombs on those people; American citizens, because they wanted to be paid properly.

        I consider myself to be a historically literate person, and I only learned about that *this year*. On Twitter, no less.

        Oh yeah, the MOVE bombing was a big deal. Even when they rebuilt the Osage block, they did it substandard.
