The idea that everything ever done is either ‘right’ or ‘wrong’ can be employed to destroy history. To apologise for the past as being archaic is crass. Britain banned institutional slavery, which is a source of pride. It had been a norm throughout history at some level. Are we to apologise and pay restitution, for the burning of heretics. Ask for forgiveness for past child labour in factories and mines. Curse the past for burning coal and oil to pollute the atmosphere. The list is endless. Are we to repeat the 16th century with the removal of images and statues and burning of books, or rewriting past authors as is happening. I have no doubt that the next step will be the removal of ‘offending’ old editions of books from libraries, and antiquarian book shops. Tomorrow will have its turn.

I'm just happy that Morgan thinks Daniel is Brown and Daniel thinks Morgan is Peter. Who's Peter? Only Brown knows. Who is Brown? Only Peter knows. There are exactly 2.5 BMWs owned by Sultan Rich-as-Fuck.

history is erased when no one remembers it

google can't find that- it never happened

ignorance is bliss
