   People always say that you need to learn from history otherwise you'll repeat it, but that doesn't seem to apply to the actual perpetrators of such history, just the ones who are the natural reaction to it.

     @beardalaxy "learning from history" is peak academic masturbation, but the one thing noone will learn is, that humans have needs, desires, and actual reasons that lead them to the path that will be next "lesson".

     The most educated people in country are still screaming about "muh disinformation", instead of just listening for 5 fucking seconds needed to realize, that EU is actively trying to dismantle everything I hold dear in life. So, they know what's comming. THEY KNOW THE HISTORY.

     But they will never see the path needed to not repeat it. Because noone in history did.

     @LukeAlmighty @beardalaxy Most people that talk about "learning from history" seem to think that if you study the human animal closely enough, you can find a way to hack human behavior, bend humanity so that it acts differently, conforms to some bright and shiny ideology. For them, humans are a problem to be solved, corrected. Or to put it another way, they want to keep doing the things that create the problems, but without the negative repercussions.
     
     Weimar Germany without the hyper inflation or Nazi backlash. The glorious worker's paradise without the Holodomor or Killing Fields or Great Leap Forward. A homogenized society of faceless, interchangeable consumer/production units, populated by compliant, 87 IQ browns, but one that still creates computers and planes and top shelf hospitals
     
     I suspect the push for AI, general purpose robots, and universal automation is a wealthy sub-section of such people giving up on "learning from history" (ie, domesticating humans), and instead replacing them, replacing all of us, with machines. Because really, what is Rosey the Robot from the Jetsons cartoon but a happy, obedient slave? A slave that never tires, never rebels, never demands to be respected, that can be created in infinite numbers, a slave you can own and command with zero moral baggage. If you the plantation owner, the factory owner, the wealthy man can have that, why bother having all those other plebs around at all?

     Learning from history is knowing that cheap fuel is good for society.

     Yet still repeating is a politician literally complaining that prices dropped:
