      It makes me lose all hope for any future for our species that the Holocaust is just passing out of living memory, and the Far Right is on the Rise in Germany, and the Jewish State founded by the Holocaust’s survivors is doing a genocide.

      Humans as a species can’t retain the importance of the lessons of history, even in the age of digital records. We just refuse. World War II ended 78 years ago, a single average human lifespan almost exactly, and here we are after most of the world and especially the parties involved resolutely declared “never again.”

      TIL “never” ≈ 80 Earth years

        Yeah it’s just like that. Remember how Poland was shooting rockets into Germany and slaughtering the civilians there regularly? Oh wait, none of that happened.

        Self-defense did not characterize Germany’s behavior during world war II, it absolutely does characterize Israel’s behavior regarding Palestine.

      They absolutely do that’s why they keep pumping out propaganda like the Taylor Swift bodyguard bs
