Is there a "wrong side of history"?

[Anonymous]

yes

no

[MisterWack]

Yes there is definitely a wrong side of history.

If the facts are recorded well enough, progress continues forward, and people are seen as more “free” than years prior then there are wrong sides of history involving genocides, slavery, torturing individuals barbarically, promoting ‘lies’, etc.

Small note: What I meant by ‘lies’ could be propaganda to misinform the public into an agenda, promoting false cures whether intentionally or unintentionally due to a better modern understanding of sciences of medicine, and rumors that did more harm than good, etc.

why is your side right

[MisterWack]

My side right? All I said was as time moves forward and we have more freedoms/opportunities, the past would be seen as ‘wrong side of history’.
Women have the right to vote now so, obviously some bumpkin from 1834 or whatever speaking out against it would be the wrong side of history since the present didn’t do in their direction. I didn’t want to use examples since anyone can use anything and reach the same conclusion as me.
Here is a quote that demonstrates this best, — “The past is a foreign country; they do things differently there.” - L. P. Hartley

[MisterWack]

“You’re ignorant”, okay so let me put it this way…
Why would someone be against a certain group of people gaining power/rights/freedom? To suppress them, plain and simple. If you give a woman the right to vote, that might lead to a future where women are involved in politics and make their voices heard. That is the only conclusion, no one would dare believe “Keeping women away from the ballot box helps them”, no they are thinking of themselves. It doesn’t age well so, it is the wrong side of history. If you defend women shouldn’t have the right to vote today infront of women, be sure to listen to their perspective (as a man)

He deleted your comment under my question lol @MisterWack

[MisterWack]

@mandyfire98
I saw so, I added two more lol

[mandyfire98]

Haha

[Asker]

feudalism began after the Roman empire became ruled by merchants and not soldiers. it got so bad that soldiers were being extorted for all their pay to afford food, housing and clothes. that is why opportunities were limited. there is no wrong side of history, Mr Empathy.

[MisterWack]

I have empathy to the present day, you have feelings & policies that don’t fit today. Oops.

[Asker]

I don't hold a single sentiment to be true

[RebelinSteel]

@MisterWack is the asker deleting comments?

[MisterWack]

7 to None, the poll doesn’t lie lol

[Asker]

a poll doesn't lie? proof you don't even care who's right you care who looks right.

@mandyfire98
That is why I followed you, you tell the truth.

[mandyfire98]

@Rebelinsteel

He's deleting anything that disagrees with him lol or makes a great counterpoint to him lol.

[RebelinSteel]

@mandyfire98 yes I noticed that, I believe that is called erm Trolling… just saying like

[AviatorTom]

Anything or anyone that denies what actually happened is being on the wrong side of history.

[Agape93]

Like @mandyfire98 said, nazis are an obvious example

[matchrestore]

Absolutely. There's lots of clear instances of things being on the wrong side of history, regardless of which side "won" or "lost."

[genericname85]

yeah. the "losing" side. cause the winner write the history books. not the losers. note: the winners aren't be default "the good ones".

[Anonymous]

Yeah, wrong id the opposite of Right. So those who are not supporting the Right leaning side are supporting the wrong leaning side.

[MisterWack]

Hmmmm no one put politics in this, the Nazis weren’t bad for being “Right” as you claim. They were bad for Holocaust, war crimes in general, propaganda, taking everyone’s land, wanting a 1,000 yr Reich, etc.
Again not political at all, it is in the past YOU put politics into it. Any side could commit atrocities / take away rights from others and kill people in the name of their nationalist state, wrong side of history is what it is. Wrong side of history.

[Opinion Owner]

@MisterWack the nazis were socialists. The actual name for the nazi party was something like national socialism workers party. They were leftists. And commies supported them until the nazis betrayed the commies. Yeah tgey were bad for their concentration camps, most famous for killing jews, and modern leftards are bad for thinking that genocide of jews is ok depending on context.

Any side could commit atrocities. The Right choose not to. The left, also known as the wrong side of history, choose to.

[MisterWack]

Then why did you defend the Nazis at the start?
The four main features of Nazism are racial purity, territorial expansion, power and militarism. If you agree with any of these, you are on the wrong side of history regardless of politics. My opinion has never changed, yours did.

[Opinion Owner]

@MisterWack I did not defend nazism at any start. I pointed out they are socialists and leftists. Opposite of the Right. My opinion mever changed. Nazis are leftists.

[mandyfire98]

Nazis

[Asker]

you miss the point of the question.

[mandyfire98]

Did I? Nazis were on the wrong side of history.

Could there be an argument that if they won they'd be on the right side? Maybe but they lost and they ended up on the wrong side and the allied powers were on the right side of history.

[mandyfire98]

History determines what's on the wrong or right side at the end of the day.

[Asker]

stop preaching to me

[mandyfire98]

Why'd you delete the other comment by mister wack?

[BarryLiverstone]
