Quote:Of course it can. Stupid behavior is contagious. So is the spreading of miss-information.

From the link Roger just posted - Ripped from this historical context, the tragic events that took place in Minnesota 158 years ago are manipulated to portray Lincoln as a racist no different from those who called for the extermination of the Native populations. This is part of a larger campaign, spearheaded by the New York Times’ 1619 Project, to undermine the democratic and egalitarian legacy of America’s first two revolutions.

Remember "The Big Lie Theory" - A big lie (German: große Lüge) is a propaganda technique. The expression was coined by Adolf Hitler, when he dictated his 1925 book Mein Kampf, about the use of a lie so "colossal" that no one would believe that someone "could have the impudence to distort the truth so infamously". (Wikipedia)

Unfortunately, it's alive and well.

Tell that to Lerone Bennett, Edgar Lee Masters, Thomas Di Lorenzo or any of the others who have decimated forests trying to tear down Lincoln's reputation. It has not worked before, and it won't work now.
