A refusal to learn

  In Memory of the 7,600 civilians murdered in Hue by Vietnamese communists

Via comment by Sioux on Life Under The Victimocracy

 We have learned nothing from history and so we are bound to repeat it:

We’ve known for 5,000 years that mass spying on one’s own people is always aimed at grabbing power and crushing dissent, not protecting us from bad guys.

We’ve known for 4,000 years that debts need to be periodically written down, or the entire economy will collapse. And see this.

We’ve known for 2,500 years that prolonged war bankrupts an economy.

We’ve known for 2,000 years that wars are based on lies.

  1. Am I wrong or has most the major slaughter occurred in the last 100 years? The commies 'revolutions' in Russia, China, Vietnam, Cambodia - 100s of millions dead, and many more lives ruined - show me where any of the Western monarchies/dictatorships are anywhere close in comparison. Not the Crusades for sure (which were for the purpose we now are faced with ourselves - to deal with murderous muslims),
