You just seemed to be unleashing an avalanche of condecension, but maybe I can attribute a little of that to the atmosphere and what I expect from I-Mockery.
I didn't mean to say you were straight-out making it up, either, you just seemed to be inflating its importance in this context.

See what I mean?
It's a subject that's hard to discuss with people who didn't enjoy their history lessons. I know people who won't listen to word one about communism because the only thing they associate the word with is Stalin. I'm used to having to scream at people and tell them to read a book, hence my initial post.
