I've watched it happen my whole life without knowing. The lessons of the past can't be passed on to future generations. They must be relearned. I've seen it just trying to teach my own kids, but it's global.

I am slowly giving up hope of politics; Hitler is after all the Chosen One of his people. I do not believe that he is in the least bit shaky, I am slowly beginning to think that his regime can really still last for decades. There is so much lethargy in the German people and so much immorality and above all so much stupidity.

Imagine actually living in that era, not knowing how things ended as we do today. Scary.

The existential dread from the past is the same existential dread of today. We also do not know how things might turn out.

It’s not the same. Similar but not the same. Things were definitely farther along back then. Much closer to tyrannical world domination.
