Whoever came up with that name really needed to crunch some more numbers before finalizing it. As you said, it's not really that common for some reason. So it really needs a new name.
If we find more members for our club, that can be one of our goals. Promoting the spread of common sense through the belief that it's actually a common thing.
... No, that sounds like something the Xavists would say, and they blew up our school. Never mind. That was a terrible idea.
I've never heard of Xavists but it's actually a pretty sound theory A lot of how we perceive history and society is shaped by our common beliefs You'd be surprised at how many famous people aren't actually anything like they talk about in history books
[ Okay, sometimes Actual Magic has a hand in that, but also her canon is one where a lot of people are sometimes quite literally shaped by belief. ]
[ Out of the entire cast of Sengoku reborn students, Sasuke's the odd one out about knowing of past lives. Or rather... he's the only one still in the dark about it. So, his interest in history has mostly been related to school.
Can he believe that he'll never see the Xavists again? And live by example of trying to avoid them? ]
How would we know how they were like if history got it wrong? That'd take some serious investigating which might not be possible.
[ At some point, maybe, she'll tell him about the wackier elements of her life, or maybe he'll end up getting rolled into something by accident. He's the kind who might end up involved without meaning to be; she's enough the same that she can recognize that.
But for now, she leaves it at that. ]
Anyway, "history is written by the victors," right? If you want a balanced look, you need to look all over the place.
You make a good point. Can't stick with one source. But luckily, it's not my job to piece together this stuff. I'll leave that in the hands of more capable people, you know?
I mean there's always playing to your strengths I know a lot about that too lol But I think it's more of like "Leave it to people who care about this stuff!!" Something like that

So maybe if enough of us believe, it'll become common!
Or something like that lol

I guess the only recourse is live by example
