The teaching of history today really is bunk

Henry Ford stupidly said “History is more or less bunk....the only history that is worth a tinker's dam is the history we make today."(Chicago Tribune 1916) But the teaching of history today really is bunk.

Today historiography tells us that history is a history of principles like equality, freedom, and environments, and not of people. A least Ford didn't claim to be an historian.

But you don't have to be an historian to see that people, ethnic groups, with their mostly inborn traits, create cultures, or at least the creative members of groups create cultures. Why? "The genes hold culture on a leash. The leash is very long, but inevitably values will be constrained in accordance with their effects on the human gene pool. The brain is a product of evolution. Human behavior...is the circuitous technique by which human genetic material has been and will be kept intact...” (Edward O. Wilson)

Modern historian's usually approve of the rise of cultural Marxism (demanding equality for the unequal), radical feminism (demanding biologically unnatural roles for women), homosexuality (demanding biologically unnatural sexual life styles) and postmodern relativism (demanding a biologically unnatural relativity of values) which have led to biologically and culturally diseased societies, or anti-cultures.

The biological origin of social behavior evolved a human nature that has been affirmed throughout human history to this day as being universally and genetically kin-centered, gender defined, age-graded, heterosexual marriage-making, hierarchical, ethnocentric, even xenophobic, among other conservative things, with group-selection as the primary unit of successful selection followed by individual selection. That is the human nature which creates cultures and histories. Cultures have no other demonstrable function than to affirm and advance the specific people who live in and create the specific cultures.
