    History is written by the winners.

    I’d imagine most of the history we know is incorrect due to the obvious bias in our sources.

      I prefer to use the word ‘victor’ than ‘winner’. Only because winner feels like it implies a fair game.

        I prefer the term “violent pieces of shit”.

        I still cannot believe that there are idiots who think the native peoples of Australia had no knowledge of fire.
