I know that. I was just disagreeing about erasing all record. No I would not get rid of all of it. I would simply change the context from hero worship to "this guy, this group were violent assholes".
Think about why North Korean citizens hate us so much. Outside the top levels, for 50 years plus most of their population only gets fed what their government tells them. That is what having no record in a broader scope looks like. They only know what their government indoctrinates them with.
If you have absolutely no record at all, those in power can very easily lead you down dark roads.
I know you are not right wing at all. I was disagreeing with erasing all traces of an event.
I have no problems with you. I like you.
