It’s the past and only a memory to some (oldcels),how can we trust history books when maybe the opposite happened for example. What if our grandparents were all tortured to not speak about what happened. It’s the same concept as “Don’t believe what your eyes don’t see”. You could show me a picture of space “taken” by NASA and I wouldn’t entirely believe it but we’ve grown up with the concept. Not a conspiracy theorist but how should I believe something I didn’t see for myself?
 
that's why if you believe something you have to be fully prepared and do all the research to understand concepts that are maybe manipulated by evil hands
 
give me 1 reason why its logical to fake going into space or lying to you that earth isnt flat why would they bother with it
I don’t care what shape the earth is,earth is earth and always home but a logical reason is the fact that most “pictures” of earth,maybe all are generated
 
omg n***a mirin your iq if you believe one word of what you said

i understand that you think it might be generated but im asking why and who would bother lying to every person living on the planet and what would they possibly gain from it? they wouldnt just lie for no reason since they dont gain anything from this particular lie right

People want power,not only people but forces in the world competes against eachother always. From humans to microorganisms a big part of people using media manipulation etc to hold power and keep the rest silent.
 
Multiple sources increase our trust in said events. That along with inductive and deductive reasoning to reconstruct past events based on clues.
 
If you expand this approach and adapt it slightly, you will realise that it is stupid to trust sources or scientific “evidence”
In fact it is, sometimes
Depends a lot
Trust only in the science that is applicable and observable or come from math

And for OP , yes history may be distorted it's only normal . The winners write history so it's retarded to "believe" in it

Ur statement is too general.

Can’t be because from where did you get the information from and who? We were put in chair behind a desk with a book in a class that entirely literally is prison with teachers who don’t even know themselves

Just cause they have the loudest say doesn’t mean they are the only ones who wrote history

Real history comes from evidence/clues as I said in my previous comment. Ruins, artifacts, old letters, official records and science like carbon dating. Historians cross-check sources from different places and times, throw out anything that doesn’t add up, and only keep what matches the evidence. What you see in school is just the simplified version of all that work. I would reiterate of course. History is not a science. We don’t know what’s happening in Gaza right now ‘for sure’ by your logic. The medium has changed that’s all, from text to video, but you’re not in Gaza to see any wars? What happens is, you see multiple sources of video proof and it builds your trust in said event occurring. Even though you’re not witnessing the war itself.

War in Gaza was planned way long ago by Jews
 
"History is written by the victors" is absolutely true.
Also, some things may have been exaggerated. The battle of 300,000 might have only been 3000.
I’m not stating that history is completely incorrect but everywhere you go a different guy says something else.
 
My brain is hurting from the retarded shit I’m reading I’m out

you need to smoke crack to understand some of this stuff they're saying
 
the question is why do we need to know “true” history ? How this will help us ?

@Darkeningstar
To the second most intelligent mammal on earth the elephant,probably nothing. But I guess everyone grew up in this world of hobbies etc instead of what we were supposed to do,people have nothing to do so they pick up what’s around them.
