One of my majors in college was history and as such I know slightly more about history than a lot of people.  And as a result one of my great pet peeves is the idea of “revisionist” history because it shows a complete lack of understanding as to what history is as a discipline and as a thing that exists.  It has the idea of a static, congealed set of stone cold facts where things like perspective and misinformation and a million other things don’t come into play.  So I roll my eyes and shake my head when I hear someone bitch about it, about revising history as new information becomes available.  Obviously, you need to look at the new information, judge it’s quality, and fold it in to what you know.  But then, part of the problem is historians view the information as neither good nor bad morally, it’s information (at least the good ones do).  But most people view history as propaganda to prove their side right.  Which is the real reason they rail against revisionist history and why I discount almost anyone’s opinion on history when they start with that.  Anyway, I bring this up because Victoria looks like some bullshit revisionist history to me.  Jenna Coleman has been around promoting it and it is so detached from reality I don’t know what to say.  Like, I have never in my entire life wanted to sleep with Queen Victoria but now ITV is like, hey, look, you really want to sleep with Queen Victoria.  Bullshit revisionist history, suddenly you make Queen Victoria gorgeous?  Not cool.  It’s just a subversion of history.  Today I want to fuck Jenna Coleman.
