DS9 s3e12 “Past Tense, Part II”
When in grade school, studying WW2 everyone was asking how things were able to get that bad.
Now, we’re witnessing it, being fully documented in real time and stored on the Internet and social media.

That’s a problem, history seems to be more about “here’s the battles” not “here’s why the battles happened”.
Shame that, the why and causality of event to event is, to me, the most fascinating part of history. That, and the “oh, they weren’t so different :D / oh, we’re not so different -_-” moments.
Now it’ll be “here’s the battles caused by wokeness”
Future child: so how was this battle caused by wokeness?
Them: homosexuals wanted to keep their right to get married so we showed up in masks and harassed them to the point we started killing them.
They’ll just accuse all gay and trans people of being pedophiles
When I was in high school, I was asking my history teacher if Hitler was considered a “good Christian” by contemporary theological standards. I was that dude.
Thank you for your service in fighting blind obedience.

History does love a rhyme.
So does Lucas.

Well, we just got the first Sanctuary District announced in Washington…
Just to point out that we are late, but the direction seems to be right.
The temporal wars messed things up a bit … we’re behind schedule but we’re still on track … the question now is whether we’ll survive WWIII or not … in the old timeline, things worked out but now that the timeline has changed, we aren’t sure any more :(
If you prefer your “how things got so bad” in youtube video essay form I watched Downton Abbey and the Origin of Capitalism recently and found it good.
Capitalism, for the most part… Honestly…
I mean, yeah, you might say it’s dumb to blame everything on one thing. But look at how many world shaping decisions were made in the name of profits. Decisions that are still being made now.
No wonder they’re not looking to enthused about trading the rest of the volume. They got through all the fuckin’ first. 🤷🏼♂️
