Did you ever see "Catch 22" when the guy crashes the plane into the cliff. And because "Doc" was officially listed as a passenger in the plane, no one would even acknowledge his existence any more even though he was clearly standing right in front of them.

Rewriting history and subscribing to the rewritten version can be just like that.
