Hollywood and History

[milo]

I have had (heated) discussions with several Americans who now believe that Hitler was indeed blown up by Americans in a movie theatre. This to me indicates that there are serious problems with critical thinking in education these days -- and by "these days" I mean the last twenty years at least. It also indicates that people are utter morons.

I prefer that version to the reality anyway. Reality only has virtue in history on account of it happening first. I think we ought to decide, collectively that that is what really happened.
