I don't say these things with glee in my heart. It's just the opposite. Nothing but sorrow.
History can't be the left's worst enemy because we don't have anybody in large enough numbers weaponizing it against them. Progressives can change history at will because they completely own it - as the person who replied to me just before you, made note of. There are to be sure, one or two people here on FR that truly take history seriously above and beyond convenient quotes used for gotcha purposes, and then there's David Barton, and then really that's about it. The conservative activism on the historical front is alarmingly slim.
I'm sure there's probably 3 or 5 other people who could be named, but they are far and few in between. Sure there are a handful of newcomers, there's this 1776 Unites which was formed in response to the 1619 Project.
Progressives have controlled written history for over a century. You don't overcome that kind of advantage with a dozen people and a 1 year old organization. It's not mathematically feasible.
I disagree with the contention that the left has controlled history.
The only thing they’ve controlled is their lies. What they’ve done to history is to replace it with their own invention.
That is to say, on the one hand we have history. On the other, the left’s distortion of history.
Two things which are categorically different and existentially separate.
