It's pathetic how Yasuke has basically become accepted as a real person who definitely existed. The propaganda has been put on repeat and pushed for so long now that any debate of his actual existence is over.
Talk to any retard and they will not even entertain the idea that the "evidence" from Jesuit writings may have been fabricated or embellished for the sake of a promotion. They will merely say that there is other evidence, without knowing what that evidence is. The idea of even questioning his existence is seen as taboo to the average normie. Even people who are against his inclusion in Assassin's Creed are merely arguing that he was only a "Retainer" and not a "Samurai," giving legitimacy to the historical revisionism that is being attempted.
The overton window will continue to shift to the point where Yasuke's existence will be elevated to "he was an important warrior in Nobunuga's army" because leftists and dishonest Historians will pull shit out of their ass and reference each other in circular reporting until the normies begin to accept it as true because it makes them sound smarter to know some random historical fact.
Harriet Tubman is probably just our Robin Hood, although Brits know that Robin Hood is folklore while we're still taught that Harriet Tubman was a real person. Doesn't help that you can just use a picture of a random slave to "substantiate" that story.
Then of course there's Anne Frank, who didn't write "her" diary, but that bit of folklore is also still being taught in schools.
That's an interesting idea. History is well documented in America* and I always took for granted that Harriet Tubman was a real person. Is there an alt-history claim that she wasn't?
(*though since the covid19 shit I started noticing how all mainstream ideas are upheld by those in power even if they don't align with reality, so I started questioning everything we're told...)
