I’m quite sure this happens again and again and again. Because that’s the nature of dominance hierarchy behaviour.
Co-operative people, egalitarian people, build. Then the dominators show up and pretend like they built it.

@gimulnautti That's it. Nothing but the same old story, but some manage to resist, and now that is what we must do.

@gerrymcgovern "In peacetime, particularly during the early 20th century that was a politically charged period for Japan as it engaged in colonial expansion, Dr Buckland says the samurai image was manipulated for the purposes of galvanising a national identity. " The word this writer is failing to use is "fascism". In a world that is rapidly accelerating back into fascism, not using it is definitely a choice! Early 20th century Japan was fascist. The re-writing of Japanese history in that time was fascist action done by fascists. I hope that in 100 years people are not lying about our fascists here in 2020s USA. Our fascists are also re-writing history, RIGHT NOW.
An accurate and also more useful way to say this would have been "the Japanese fascists wrote women out of their history to build up a warrior myth to justify imperial atrocities."
@dirtwizard666 Too true. Fascist indeed. And what underlies fascist movements is the cult of the macho man, the cult of violence. Fascism is a particular sport that men excel at for they wrote all the rules.

@gimulnautti Or the dominators extract rent where they can and 'liquidate' community-built assets where they can't.

https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20240731-the-sports-where-women-outperform-men@gerrymcgovern Many women were warriors, yes, but to say that ”half of samurai were women” is as obvious as saying half of any hereditary group is/was women. Samurai was the social class.
