History doesn't mean "pretty and PC", it means what factually happened.

Well said, society seems to have chosen to forget this fact.

Just saw this thread....so I dug out my stamp collection from the early 60's

Other than a lot of stamps that had come loose from their holders....I found two Hitler stamps. A 10 and a 20 pfennigs.

I may trash can the whole works...it's next to worthless.

A lot of them were with ink on the arms of Jews.

Never forget. There is a cancel culture in the USA to erase history because they don't argree with it or like it.
