Author of How to Prep When You’re Broke and Bloom Where You’re Planted online course Do you ever see something that makes you really fear for the future? We all know that history is written by the victors. We all know that there are some bad guys who were written up as good guys. We know that some dark times get rewritten as not-so-bad times or erased altogether. The history of Ireland was written by the priests but there was a whole lot of civilization and culture there before that‚ much of it stamped out due to the religious beliefs of the writers. The same is true for the United States – settlers who were able to write created their own version and documentation of the history of our continent that left out the stories of the original occupants. And now we’re watching as an entirely new revision is made. AI is allowing leaps and bounds in progress‚ if by progress you mean entirely erasing history and rewriting it to be “diverse.” Gemini AI is blatantly racist. Gemini AI‚ the AI image creator of Google‚ is blatantly racist. But it’s okay. It’s not racist against minorities. It’s racist against white people‚ and in today’s world‚ that’s not actually racism if you are to believe the mainstream media. This isn’t going to be a long article. It’s going to mostly be photos from Twitter. You can draw your own conclusions.

I kindly invite this person to troll elsewhere because I’m not allowing the circular argument fallacy to distract from the main point. Erasing history is wrong.  Erasing entire races is wrong. Whether we’re talking about erasing the history of enslaved black people brought to America against their will‚ or erasing the history of Asian-Americans who were ripped from their homes and placed in internment camps‚ or erasing the history of white people in…well EVERYTHING…‚ it’s wrong. There is always going to be some bias in history‚ because circling back to my initial point – it’s written by the victors. But forcing diversity and inclusion down the throats of people who never excluded anyone based on race or ethnicity in their lives only does one thing: it makes them feel defensive. It makes them feel like they’re under attack. And what do people under attack do? They fight back. Whether it’s rational or not‚ it’s human nature to fight back and lash out and begin to despise someone who treats YOU like the enemy. All this is doing is making people more divided. It’s certainly not making us embrace one another and sing kumbayah. And by negating any achievement by a white person and assigning it to a person of another race or ethnicity‚ it erases history just as certainly as the other examples I have mentioned here. By refusing to allow certain images to be generated because their very existence is deemed to be hateful‚ what is it telling children with backgrounds and families and skin colors like this? This has all been done before‚ albeit without computers. It was wrong then. And it’s wrong now. What about REAL accomplishments? There are many incredible stories – true ones – about the accomplishments of people from every background and every place on the planet. Why aren’t we telling those stories instead of recreating existing stories and changing the identities of the players? Isn’t it more important to add stories of great achievements than to just rewrite existing stories? Doesn’t that just reiterate that the existing stories are somehow better? I don’t believe that’s true. People everywhere have stories about someone who has done great things. Real events. True heroes and inventors and leaders. I want to know about the history of real people. I want to know their stories. I don’t want to pretend that the Queen of England was a different race or that George Washington was actually Native American. I want to know about things that happened and who made those things happen. Many of those stories are lost to the winds of time but many are also still out there. Why isn’t Google promoting these stories instead of trying to convince us that the history we know is wrong and bad? What will our great-grandchildren believe? Google’s half-hearted apology means nothing. In fact‚ they apologized not for completely excluding white people but more for making Nazi soldiers “diverse. What will my great-grandchildren think when they consider the history of the United States of America? What will they believe to be true about early civilizations? What will they believe about the Greeks and the Romans and the Vikings? What will they believe really happened in the early 2000s when the devolution of the US really sped up? Well‚ if Google’s in charge‚ what they’ll think isn’t going to be anywhere close to what we’re watching happen. What are your thoughts? I want to know what you think about this. Are you surprised? Are you bothered? How are you preserving history for your children‚ grandchildren‚ and beyond? Let’s talk about it in the comments. And please‚ don’t be hateful. I know at least one of you will have something nasty and insulting to say to me (we all know who I’m talking about)‚ but for the rest of you‚ try and behave.
