42. I study WW1

Well after printing press, obviously. On the verge of radio. But trying to learn about the war is difficult:

Each country's writings are biased to their propaganda.

Illiteracy was rampant among the common people. Especially the Russians.

Regional dialects were common among the common people.

Learning the cause of the war requires reading all sides and interpreting the truth. Newspapers were mostly government controlled so almost all views are biased.

The experiences of the common person are anecdotal at best and mostly non-existent. Plus it is difficult to separate our own biases from what we try to interpret.

WW1 was barely over 100 years ago. The printing press was widely used, education was available to many. Many people were not confined to live in a few mile radius from where they were born.

Two thousand years ago??? Translations, scribes, limited travel and hence rampant regional dialects. Not to mention self-serving dishonesty. I could go on, but skepticism is not only warranted, but necessary to learn what little truth can be salvaged.
