Mallory's Musings & MischiefOne thing that was never emphasized enough in history class is that historical events keep happening as you get older and that it's quite stressful
Juggling With Eggs@malcircuit studying history and politics in the 90’s gave me a very warped idea of the future…the Berlin Wall had recently come down, Nelson Mandela was freed, then the USSR partially imploded, the West believed they had ‘won’ the Cold War and Francis Fukuyama was saying it was the End of History (if we’re all liberal democracies then there will be no further war). My university education ended in 2000. By the following year - 2001, the world was an entirely different place again.
strwbrryJen@JugglingWithEggs @malcircuit now like have of us from that time are basically saying capitalism has got to go, a bit of an irony in my book
