During slavery - probably as a peasant, working in a field somewhere.

During the Holocaust - probably as a soldier, dying in a French field somewhere.

During the Civil Rights Movement - probably with another bunch of hippies, high as fuck in a field somewhere.

Actually living, rather than advertising it for points.

This is ridiculous

You can't just erase history, you can also appreciate things while also recognising things that wouldn't fly now. It's a sign of progress, it's literally the whole point.
What you call progress is censorship.
As Orwell said in 1984 book "ignorance is a strength", instead of coming to explain the context of a work, we prefer to censor it by yielding to the emotion and tyranny of the minority.
This is the problem of multicultural societies (this kind of problem does not affect a country like Japan or Eastern Europe), each small community ( jews, blacks, arab, gay...) will always feel oppressed and there is a victim race.

I was saying we can look back at these works and see how quality of life for many groups has improved. How is that censorship? Or have I misunderstood you? I'm saying that works shouldnt be "cancelled" because they show realities of context.

right and wrong about what? Immigration ? Europe ? Economy ?
Um for a life time of being a (failed) fascist populist, more fines for bigotry then election results. Who was litterally kicked out from his own racist party, by his own racist daughter, for saying the holocaust and the gas chambers was just a detail in history?


This is the guy that was right all along?


What's next, next time dimwitted social media idiots trigger you, David Duke was right all along too?

Mind giving me example of a fascist regime
Modi and his cronies. (Don't tell me you didn't see this coming :p)

Edit: In case you weren't aware, the MSM here is mostly pro-govt, most of the ppl reporting against the govt have been forced out of MSM and into independent media, label such independent media as "pro-communist, anti-national" so that people themselves avoid reading them (no govt censorship necessary), companies frequently practice self-censorship to avoid the wrath of the govt, etc.
