seriously, dk.
but i wonder whether this is an instance in which the history of the united states from the left viewpoint, in the context of which the violent suppression of any attempt at union organization from the colorado coalfield wars through the butchering of the obu through the wars around river rouge are important, and that which exists for other people diverge. because the triumphalist white-boy history of the u.s. of a. doesn't include the violent lunatic anti-communism that carried the day for decades here because either they agree with the politics or they are simply not informed so that reality for them never existed.
it's hard to say.
