"In the last 24 hrs, Conservative influentials have: railed vs a movie based on a doll; exploited a man’s drowning to spread crazy conspiracy theories; and defended the skills learned thru & “benefits” of slavery by making same argument re the Holocaust! 🤦🏻‍♀️
I’m not making this up."
-Ana Navarro

There is no whitewashing the right is complete trash in every way.

Difficult to keep up with the #revisionism and #disinformation flying thick and fast in @LeoVaradkar's #speech this morning at the #conforum on #neutrality. Ireland "assisted the allies in World War 2"? Is this seriously going to be the line now? #DefendNeutrality https://t.co/V5etCdP6Mx

Question: as I recall, there was some national public figure in the US who, a few months ago (I think?), publicly made comments about the death toll “during World War II,” but kept pointedly avoiding any mention of the Holocaust until they were called on it.

Does anyone remember this? Am I just pulling it out of my ass?

#antisemitism, #holocaust, #revisionism, #wwii,

Open territorial revisionism from the Hungarian govt - for those who doubted that this was a thing and called it a conspiracy theory. (I heard this a lot from progressives! "You are exaggerating!" No, this is what they are selling to their supporters and have been for a while, just take a look.)

Map shows "Greater" Hungary.

Absolutely shameful -

The plan is to depict a heroic regime: GN Devy on attempts to rewrite history

"If one speaks of federalism then one becomes anti-national, if one speaks of diversity then one becomes unpatriotic, if one speaks of a different opinion there is UAPA [Unlawful Activities Prevention Act], and if one tries to tell the truth then trolls are directed at that person. Since all of this is happening and the principles of justice, equality and freedom, inscribed in the Constitution, are being constricted, then there is good reason for any objective observer to ask if this is not a totalitarian regime."

Republicans engage in Holocaust revisionism to justify their pro-gun platform. It's a tactic they've used for decades.

Savarkar praised and called himself ‘Veer’ in biography penned by himself

Even in Maharashtra Savarkar has been a controversial personality with even the grandfather of Uddhav Thackeray accusing Savarkar of promoting falsehood and Brahminism.

Right-wing Newsmax host and YouTuber Benny Johnson engaged in extreme historical revisionism

The ownership of enslaved people increased wealth for Southern planters so much that by the dawn of the Civil War, the Mississippi River Valley had more millionaires per capita than any other region."

In 2022, Bloomberg calculated that slavery, at its peak, accounted for ten to twenty percent of the US gross domestic product.

American History is a weak spot for me. What are good revisionist histories of the Am Rev period (ie 1763-1788)?

Recently read Harvey's “few bloody noses," and Mackesy's “War for America," which are not strictly revisionist, but helping me get better 360º on the situation.

This is a whopper of revisionism from Axios. Let's be clear. Trump was able to overcome his money deficiency in 2016 by getting billions of dollars in free airtime. Without the news media--particularly cable news--clinging to his every move--he would have never made it into the 2016 primaries. God I hate this type of ahistorical nonsense from people who should know better. #Revisionism

@aparrish I feel like this is both somewhat consistent with moving towards semantic HTML, and also a missed opportunity to call it the "bigly" element. #html #revisionism

@uanews I wonder if you read this critique of Snyder’s #Ukraine #revisionism ?
