Whenever I hear the phrase "history has proven"... Whose history?

History is a bunch of lies agreed upon by the winners of wars. So the
biggest bully gets away with the biggest lie. Because no one can punish him
for lying.

The greatest genocide in history was possibly the mass murder of 100
million american indians, when america was "discovered", but you won't read
about it much in any US public school history book. Or the history book of
any US allies. Because USA has the biggest military now.

If history has proved anything, imho, it has proved "ends justify means"
don't work. Violent revolutions only give rise to even more violent and
oppressive governments than they have fought against. So, violent
revolutions fail to bring peace and prosperity and freedom.

Here is a better version of history for freedom minded people, if anyone is
interested:
