Objects in mirror are closer than they appear.

This ubiquitous safety warning applies equally to history.

The more tragedy or genocide receipts into the past,

the more we're likely to immortalize it rather than learn from its ugly appearance.

Television, Champions, Genghis Khan, and Vikings as alpha males exploiting far-away riches

rather than as brutal murderers bent on conquest.

Their stain has faded from memory.

Bonus points when said tragedy didn't happen to your family.

American politicians call slavery our original sin as if another didn't predate it,

while also claiming that every citizen is privileged with equal opportunities today,

which of course is a lie.

Just as wealth is generational, so is lack.

No same politicians can even own up to the insurrection,

indicative of their media's distortion of our sense of time and place.

And so they both create and exploit their media to further hypnotize their constituents.

If we can't get 20-21 right, good luck rewinding the clock back eight decades.
