Wants to be progressive by wiping old idealogy from the history books. Sounds like whitewashing to me.

If you can't look at old ideas without being critical of them, how will you deal with those ideas when they inevitably come back around again? Nazis didn't disappear, they still exist. Do we wipe their entire history because they killed thousands of Jews?

People need to learn that getting rid of history only serves to fuel the opressors that got into power because of ignorance of history in the first place.
