Regarding endnote [4]: I'd be as interested in examples where we should read contrarian history as in any of your other examples; I'm interested in history. However, I think that you'd probably fall into mind-killing territory.

Google "Mencius Moldbug", "Unqualified Reservations". Read until you get bored.
Alternatively read Thomas Carlyle, (long dead historian) or actual primary documents. The TIME magazine archives are pretty cool for this, as is Google Books.
