It’s worth remembering that history in itself is biased. History is written by people, people are biased.
The Bias Rule
“This rule says that every source is biased in some way. Documents tell us what the creator of the document thought happened, or what the creator wanted others to think happened. Historians know that even eyewitnesses to an event tell different stories about what happened, influenced by their biases, loyalties, personal experiences, etc.Biases and opinions tell us important things about the past and can help shed light on both cultural and individual prevailing attitudes of the time. For example, consider the diary of a southern plantation owner, and the diary of one of his slaves. Each would certainly be biased and have very different opinions, but neither is less valid, and both help us gain a better understanding of the situation.
Remember, just as eyewitnesses have biases, so do historians. Bias is usually not intentional, but historians are not free from bias and a selective retelling of the facts.”
What’s the time Mr Wolf …..?

There is a quote in the bible …
” beware of false prophets that come to you in sheep’s clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves” Gospel according to Matthew …also in Aesop’s fables
But the one I like the best is ….
” the only thing worse than a wolf in sheep’s clothing…is a sheep in sheep’s clothing…
