Why we reject inconvenient historical facts.

 History is science of sorting and understanding of memories.

Memories determine the identity.

If the history is curated to determine a certain identity or a certain population behave in a certain way for a long time, inconvenient or incongruous facts will be reject to maintain the identity.

If a populatin believes is peaceful and tolerant will reject fact that proves that sometimes it attacked others or persecuted minorities.

I like people who accept their mistakes, this means that they will change and improve.
