Yes we do, it’s literally the reason they left in the first place. There were protests all across the colonies, the British even repealed the Stamp Act due to the blowback. There are pamphlets, books, and vast quantities of recorded speeches and debates from both sides of the Atlantic on the issue. From before the revolution.
Sounds to me like you’re a product of the Ignorant Blowhard educational system and have assumed you know everything about everything with little evidence to support the assumption.
They’re of course going to give you the surface level, popular version of what happened. If you want to actually know the real story you need to talk to historians.
Historians are the ones who break through the myths. Myths are what you’re taught in school. In school they told you all about how the US founding fathers were heroic figures fighting for their freedom…
Did you forget how you wanted to end that or…? 🤷♂️
Regardless, if you don’t think historians are writing history books, what do you think they’re doing? And no, in school they taught me that the US founding fathers founded the US, pretty objective stuff. You know, names, dates, locations, etc. I’m fascinated to hear what else you think I was taught though, this is fun!

According to what you learned in an American elementary school?
Nah, according to the Encyclopedia Britannica. Must be more American propaganda though I s’pose 🤣🤣🤣

No you need to talk to people who have been dead for hundreds of years, your entire argument is based on not trusting historians.

Researching it and writing papers for other historians.
Do you think most historians write popular history books for non-historians?
No, but I do think history books are by definition written by historians.
