What you are witnessing is the first stages of rewriting history. Communists are famous for it. We will have been long gone but if this is allowed to continue nothing we know as factual history will exist in another 100 years.
Communists are famous for rewriting history but it didn’t last. Their name changes only lasted so long also; think Leningrad, Stalingrad and other cities now reverting to their traditional names. Even here in the United States, Cape Kennedy has gone back to Cape Canaveral.
You're being really optimistic.
“Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.”
1984, George Orwell

What’s funny about this is some American pinkos fought in the Spanish Civil War as the Lincoln brigade. Guess that has to be airbrushed now, too. They were feted in S.F. by the Left until the last one died a few years ago.
