Winner is king, loser is kou! Winners gain political power and naturally have the right to speak. How to write history depends on themselves. I have always doubted the authenticity of China's history, but unfortunately, I have only a little knowledge and my ability to prove the authenticity of history is limited.
But for modern history, due to the short time, I believe there will be a fair record. Even if the authenticity of history is not accurately recorded and concealed for some reason, it will come out one day. Because today's world is an era of developed information, it is not easy to keep it secret and cover it up.
Even if you pretend to be a winner and become a politician, it is impossible to dominate the world. Things like turning black and white and tampering with history during the Cultural Revolution probably exist now, but you just can't do whatever you want like the Cultural Revolution. It's true, it's true, it's false, it's false. Although the winner is strong, the people are stronger. Perhaps the winner can run amok and distort and subvert history at will, but everything is not eternal.
Winners like to tamper with history out of fear and worry. It is easy to conquer the world, but it is difficult to enjoy it. In order to govern, manage and protect their own interests, it is natural to hope that the people will be weak, obedient and obedient, and it is a good way to deceive, enslave and govern the people with the history that is beneficial to those in power. What should I do if people and things in the past are not good for those in power? Change, resolutely change! Winners will not let history that is harmful to them educate the people. They have the privilege and power to change the record and understanding of history, and the later dynasties will also modify the history of the previous dynasty to a certain extent, which has always been the case.
However, for modern society, although there will still be things and phenomena that do not respect history, the progress of science and technology has made it impossible for those in power to tamper with history at will. As citizens in the new century, we should boldly question some traditional historical views, challenge authority, think about historical issues independently, and dare to put forward different historical views. Questioning and challenging is not to oppose or deny anything, but to test the stereotyped history in the form of argument. The correct view of history can stand the test, while the wrong view of history or distorted historical truth will restore its truth through argument.
2. Winners write history. Winners write history. At least for us, it is an indisputable fact. Historical books regarded as "official history" such as Twenty-four History are all compiled by winners.
This is not to say that losers can't write, but that losers or people who sympathize with losers will be restricted by many conditions to write history. First, we must be defeated and not die, and then we must keep it secret before we can proceed.
What you write can not be called "history" publicly, but can only appear in the form of "memory", "ambition" and even novels. What's more, because it is impossible to organize a special team to do it collectively like the official revision of history, and it is impossible to have complete historical materials, the content written is often scattered, one-sided and full of mistakes.
Moreover, many contents may have to be covered up by the so-called "Qubi" because they cannot be directly expressed. In addition, such works are usually produced and existed among the people, most of which are difficult to maintain and spread, and more likely to be lost.
But we must admit that this so-called "unofficial history" is a good supplement to the "official history". With these materials, future generations can know a richer and more real history.
