Status-hungry academics in Nazi Germany wrote ideologically driven histories to ingratiate themselves with the power-brokers of the day. According to Dr. Rebecca Futo Kennedy, this was done by knowingly falsifying history.

Do you think these Nazi academics knew that what they were saying was filled with gross distortions, or did they believe what they promoted?

Are today's academics any different? Do they create ideologically driven histories to gain access to power? Does this involve knowingly placed misinformation, or is it rather something different?

I have to think that some of them were true believers. That said opportunists will learn to emphasis certain truths while occluding others. Lies of omission?

The same is true today. Nothing has changed.

nobody even sort of functional would ever associate themselves with /pol/ in public unless they were independently wealthy.
