I'm just curious as to how you have special information about the reality of American history, but don't want to present that information.
My knowledge informs my actions, and I see that the same is true for us all. Peace... Aho!
And it matters because like you said, your knowledge informs your actions, and if you take actions that affect other people based on information that clashes with the reality that we currently understand about American history, I believe you have a responsibility to make sure your information is as correct as possible.
