You have it backwards. State propaganda was what tricked me into believing history was truth. It was only when I attended college, a respectable historian educated me about history: "his story", "victor writes the history", etc. Even if you can remove bias/agenda from man, the fact of the matter is only a tiny fraction of "histories" are recorded and of those only a tiny fraction of it survives. I like history and think we need it to form societies, nations, institutions, etc, but it most definitely isn't truth in any real sense of the word.
