Edit: monkian, unfortunately, not all who read and post in the Monastery are historians.
But we have the Backroom for political and 'lively' discussions.

The recent topics that were brought up in the Monastery should've been moved to the Backroom.

I think banning a very interesting period of modern History i.e the whole of the 20th Century is a little drastic because of a few people.

How are people suposed to learn of other people's views or what actually happened in that century i.e The Hollacaust when we are banned from talking about them ?
