Since history is inherently subjective and based on interpretation

THEY'VE TRIED

Literally how the left works; the first step is to make everyone hate who you feel don't support good values (Columbus, Napoleon, the Church)

>>3373918
But history is objective tho. Subjective historians are shit and should be ignored.

>>3374149
They are right about the church and Columbus

Myth is a much more powerful tool in this regard than history. Consider how in classical Hellas, boys would be expected to memorise the Odyssey and the lessons inside it and recite any line from the heart.

>Columbus
A bastard who treated human lives like livestock because lol they shar in open air
>Napoleon
A megalomaniac who tried to conquer everything that moved. Only frogs and ouiboos like him
>The church
There is just too much about this one ( indulgences, most of them lived in luxury even though their fucking book said not to, let every king and their mother call himself god representative on earth)

I can see why those people and institutions make you leftards seethe so much, the constant reminder that those people are the reason the Western world is so great must be a constant reminder of your failed philosophy. Kind of like how a cultist might be enraged that someone can be wildly successful yet 'sins' (according to his warped worldview, that is) all the time. The idea that Western culture has thrived and dominates the world, instead of some bumfuck nowhere African savage bullshit must burn.

>only teach people good things, destroy records of bad things
>nobody has any knowledge of historical precedence for large swathes of future things

besides you should always read history with a good degree of skepticism regarding the author, use this to temper a view of things along with a variety of sources being reviewed instead of just the one

Literally what did Napoleon do that made the western world great?

>The church made the west grea
Aside from things that would have happened withiout the Church, how?
