The one sane comment in this thread.

> Adding autogenerated summaries is one thing, but inserting comments in a real person's name that they never made, when you have no knowledge of what became of that person, who may even now be dead, is beyond the pale. You're rewriting history.

Reminds me of George Orwell's writings. Specifically Notes on Nationalism - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Notes_on_Nationalism Here "Nationalism" is to be interpreted as more akin to "Tribalism" i.e. defending one's group at all costs and against all evidence/facts/truth as needed.

All nationalists have the power of not seeing resemblances between similar sets of facts. ... Actions are held to be good or bad, not on their own merits, but according to who does them, and there is almost no kind of outrage – torture, the use of hostages, forced labour, mass deportations, imprisonment without trial, forgery, assassination, the bombing of civilians – which does not change its moral colour when it is committed by ‘our’ side.
