1980 is as far away from 2025 as 1935 was from 1980.

If you grew up in the 1980s and were shocked by history, wondering how the Germans allowed for the rise of Hitler, you are now witnessing it in real time.

The world waited too long to stop Hitler/Mussolini.

The world can't afford to wait any longer to stop Putin/Musk/Trump.

They will not just be Ukraine and Canada's problem for long.

@MeanwhileinCanada Interesting perspective, history really does repeat itself in different forms. People always think, "this time it's different," but many old mistakes keep happening. The key is to stay aware and learn the lessons in time.

@ChaosInThoughts @MeanwhileinCanada "History doesn't repeat itself, but it does rhyme."

There are differences, but sometimes they don't amount to much.
