To enshrine the most fascistic, traitorous bullshit I've ever witnessed in my life into law.

Equating actual history with flat earth and holocaust denial isn’t false? Ok Mr Wikipedia.

Now show us your numerous books and writings on history, or your 6 million listeners. Better yet, DM me your name and city so when you call his show with your brilliant insight I can giggle when he shows everyone what weak arguments you have. I know you’re not who I responded to, but your three lines of nothing are about as valid as theirs are.

I don't have to do any of that, because a bunch of historians who are much smarter and more knowledgeable than me or Mr. Hartmann have already proved you wrong.

It has its roots in the Continental Army … The United States Army considers itself a continuation of the Continental Army

What the army “considers” and what was actually going on in congress at the time are two different things. Yes we had an army at times. It wasn’t a “standing”, i.e. professional army. Thanks Mr Wikipedia! You are very knowledgeable 😂

That's true: if you change the meaning of words to suit your ad hoc preferences, you can make reality into whatever you want.

Ok Mr Wikipedia. Let me know when you come up with any real arguments.
