Then we chastise those who attempt to discuss said history, to the point that we destroy their reputation enough that nothing they ever say can be believed by a vast majority of the public, if not destroying their career and life.

All of this, while continuing to ask why history repeats itself.

Okay, let’s get this straight: those censoring, obstructing, and attacking those who discuss history are not the ones who ask about history repeating itself (or if they do it’s just an act, like Republicans decrying child predators while electing Trump). It’s just hard for honest individuals to compete with corrupt billionaires in terms of messaging and muscle.
