      well then I suggest you get (or present) a more refined understanding of historical facts rather than taking (or presenting) them as pills, as you do injustice to history then.

        @iAvicenna You can stick your head in the ground and ignore history but it has the unfortunate side effect of likely leading to your own demise and potentially others.

          you can fabricate historical facts and or pretend like everything you heard from someone is factually accurate because it fits the narrative in your head but it has the same side effects that you have mentioned

            @iAvicenna Your accusations of what I know to be facts as being fabrications only points to your own lack of knowledge.

            I know, history is scary, if we get too attached to the past we might be tempted to recreate it. The truth is NOT knowing history is what dooms you to recreate it.

            Picture yourself on a boat on the ocean, far away from any land. If you don’t know where you’ve been how do you know you’re not going around in circles?
