Doesn't stop the trend from bleeding over.


Once a large enough portion of a population adopted a policy of fabrication and prevarication, it's predictable that some (especially the young) would throw up their hands and be passively incredulous about almost anything.

What also exacerbates this situation – but that I believe is beneficial, overall – are the revelations about parts of history that have been mistold or hidden from standard history education: Tulsa massacre and other racial violence, complex/problematic historical figures once-lauded, global entanglements that paint the US unfavorably, etc.
