HISTORY REPEATS

Guest Post by Steve N.

TO those who don’t know history and are destined to repeat it:

Like the human tendency of this:

“I must study politics and war that my sons may have liberty to study mathematics and philosophy. My sons ought to study mathematics and philosophy, geography, natural history, naval architecture, navigation, commerce, and agriculture, in order to give their children a right to study painting, poetry, music, architecture, statuary, tapestry, and porcelain.”John Adams

Little do you know, John, how pleasantly wishful yet pathetically unwise this kind of thinking is.

Or the wisdom of this:

The Chinese proverb, “Wealth does not pass three generations”.

With a four generations of human behavior/T4T perspective, I’ve seen this a little different than most who interpret. For me, the three generations span the sixty years between 1950 and 2008ish, the reboot called The High through the harvest of The Unraveling.

The scorched earth of the near total gathering-in left a smoky view of wealth by the time The Great Recession began, but a masterful mirror job has been pulled since to simulate good fortune.

Or the fog penetration that this kind of thinking brings about:

“Everything straight lies,’ murmured the dwarf disdainfully. ‘All truth is crooked, time itself is a circle.”Friedrich Nietzsche from “Thus Spake Zarathustra: A Book for None and All”

“It is by no means an irrational fancy that, in a future existence, we shall look upon what we think our present existence, as a dream.”

Edgar Allen Poe

Anthony Fauci is one of the crooked wolves guarding the CDC hen house for the Oligarchs. He is trying to convince the Useless Idiots that the nest of student Chinese Spies at the Canadian Bio-Lab didn’t steal CV-19 (as part of the Chinese efforts for a Bloodless Victory), but instead it naturally evolved in some exotic animals. The Oligarchs don’t want the Goy to know TPTB did pay scientist to create CV-19 from the SARS Virus and some other very contagious viruses. That Crime Against Humanity makes them accessory (responsible) for this Man Made Plague Holocaust and they should face a Nuremberg Trial.

The taxpayers in the US are being stolen from to pay the salaries of 13,000 biowarfare criminals working at 400 labs around the world, to create just this kind of weapon. There is PLENTY of guilt and plenty of guilty folks that need to face justice.

John Adams probably said that in knowing it was cyclical. So nowadays, it is time for all of us to be studying war and politics again.
