No day like today


Qin Shi Huang who united China wanted history to start with him, so he tried to destroy all documents about the past and killed every historian he could get his hands on.

He wasn't exactly successful seeing as I got this info from my historian friend from Sweden, and I assume he comes from a long genetic line of historians.

"and I assume he comes from a long genetic line of historians"

Yep, that's where Historians come from. That's why colleges make their history majors submit to blood tests, because if we don't have that historian gene then we'd just be wasting our time.

Luckily the internet is not flammable, so Donald Trump can't do this now.

Looks a bit like the attitude of Islamitic scholarship (if there is any). Tom Holland had a hard time writing about the actual history of the Islam. Everything that did not fit was eradicated, censored or adapted. Everything: events and non-events became attributed to Mohammed. Fundamentalists like Al-Qaida and IS do not care about the history and culture before the prophet Mohammed.

History teachers are always the "dangerous intellectuals" that disappear first.

Always.
