  1.  @TheMrFu  Tearing down statues would be one of the most visible. Erasing names off of buildings.

  2. And remember, all through the summer of 2020 "antifa" was trying to convince us that the fascists must be the good guys.

  3. Excellent point. That would require another library of books!

  4. If you try looking up a contemporary political personality, especially one with a conservative viewpoint, you will see various smears and attempts to associate them with ghostly terms like "white supremacist." There was a case of a person, not necessarily conservative, who tried to correct something on a page about them, but was refused. I do not remember who it was. An interesting experiment would be to look up something that you know a lot about, and compare what you know to what Wiki says. It's generally accepted, as you say, that it is an inaccurate site because of politically motivated editorial. My viewpoint is that if I end up looking for any sort of information there (starting point, as you said), I would not trust anything unless I can verify it from a source such as what TIK goes to, perhaps even an old encyclopedia. TIK had an excellent video about the philosophy and techniques of historians, reliability of sources, etc. Stephen Kotkin discusses some of his vetting methods in his interviews with Peter Robinson at the Hoover Institution as well.
