It is sad and scary, that today, that we have an orange turd, using the exact same tactics of scapegoating, vilification, and blind loyalty that lead to the horrors of things like Pearl Harbor and the Holocaust.

Did you really have to say "most people pay no attention to history"?

I don't think it is said enough.

If the sane worldwide value longevity to our species, I can't think of anything more important than understanding and remembering the lessons of the past.
