There’s not much of that. There is not the same kind of “Camelot” projecting with Biden supporter that you see with Trump supporters. Gaslighting is “wait and see – everything will work out fine. He knows what he’s doing. Your worries are unjustified”. I don’t recall anybody saying everything was Hunky Dory under Biden. Last half of a pandemic – it was nasty. Broken promises galore of course etc. I’m saying one is history, past, over, done and can’t compare to concerns about what’s brewing RIGHT NOW in Canada, Europe, China, etc

Truth lies inbetween the tussle and hassle, the push and pull of frustrated “almosts”. It’s wispy though, rarely firm. However, when it comes to “who” did what to “whom” things, it’s necessarily subjective. It’s subject vs subject. What’s the objective truth between subjects? You might get a third party view which will likely see both parts a little better than each individual one but there’s always subjective elements when dealing with subjects. That’s why a unified World History will likely be impossible. Shame though. I’d read it.

Commission a large painting might be nice. But statues? nah. I mean there’s nothing wrong with the list per se; some have their place in history, some are entirely random.

some of it may be malicious compliance but some of it is genuine “what am I supposed to do here?” In Florida during the DeSantis era, I see our teachers going through this each time a new batch of changes happens every six months. For every 1 maliciously compliant teacher or administrator are 9 “what am i supposed to do here?” and they go overboard whether putting school books for review or excising content from textbooks that might have emotional learning or dei — does dei mean “black history month”? Women’s studies? a sentence mentioning someone was gay? they don’t know. So it’s iffy here. I think THIS early on with zero clear guidance, it’s likely a panic response removing anything black or female.
