Everything from Marx to graduates from Columbis U. (NY), dictates: Actual history must be expunged.

And whatever furthers their revolution is 'moral.'

The revolution from hell has always been about destroying God's creation and His created order of being, leading revolutionaries to deny imago Dei:

They stopped regarding themselves as vice-regents of God, created in His image, and having given up their souls (inner person), exist as non-self, “fragmented being ruled by ancient urges and lusts which control him and reduce his reason to a façade for rampant irrationalism. Not surprisingly, T.S. Eliot saw modern man in a waste land of his own making.” (The Word of Flux, Rousas John Rushdoony, p. 54) America is quickly transforming into a wasteland of irrational, fragmented, non-self beings and nothingness. This worldview has undermined and caused the collapse of Western and American Christian foundations. The collapse has meant the loss of Divine Moral Law, imago Dei, immutable truth, everything normal and natural, together with purpose and meaning; all derived from a uniquely Christian base. Madness, ugliness, the cheapening of human life, death-wishing, inversion of good and evil, systemic lawlessness, murder, brutality, violence, and nihilism have rushed into the vacuum created by the collapse.

According to the spirit of nihilism, matter and energy exists but God does not. He is dead so life has no ultimate meaning or purpose, nor does the universe as a whole have any meaning. Whatever meaning and purpose that exists is an artificial construct created by people, and only exists as a coping mechanism without purpose. Since only matter and energy exist, there is no right way or wrong way to live, so people are free to invent their own identities and define their own way as they see fit. By extension of this way of thinking, there is no such thing as a morally right or morally wrong action because there is no such thing as God, thus no such thing as a Divine Law that says this is good and that is evil.
