Where did you find this? Absolutely brilliant & it proves that we say the same things & complain about the same things over & over. #HistoryEverRepeats, it’s just the finer points, like prices & the types of technology, evolve. If I didn’t have a thesis to write, I’d work on a 2024 version of this.
Life as I know it is over. Now I have to work on a Plan B that isn’t going to be anywhere near as satisfying. And also, we are living through the worst of the #HistoryEverRepeats scenario at the moment.
Politicians don’t care about LATER, they only care about NOW. So workers and young people around the world are going to be screwed of health as well as environment. (Long COVID sufferer having a pessimistic, bad mood day.) I’d like to hope for better, but I’m a historian. #HistoryEverRepeats
Of course we are. Because we are too bloody stupid to remember what happened over the last five years with #COVID19. #HistoryEverRepeats #HumanBeingsAreThickHeads
That last hashtag is just indicative of how over humanity I am feeling right now.
Plus ça change.
My thesis is set in sixteenth-century Paris. Our political and religious leaders have been doing this for centuries and it will never change. They create the situation that leads to poverty and homelessness and blame the victims.

Thank you for this. This might be very useful for my, what I call, #MadnessChaosDeath chapters of my thesis, which became alarmingly relevant in March 2020. People forgetting. It’s why #HistoryEverRepeats.
As a historian of poverty, the poor, charity, disease and hospitals in the 16th century, to this I would say, true, always has been true, always will be true, because people suck. Especially the so-called “elite” and governing classes. #PlusÇaChange #HistoryEverRepeats
Fat chance.

“Residential #AgedCare facilities nationally are dealing with the highest numbers of #COVID19 cases among residents in 18 months as #vaccination coverage wanes.”
It’s 2020 all over again. #FluVaccinations not happening either. We never bloody learn. #Australia #HistoryEverRepeats
I don’t think I’ve chosen the best franchises to watch on my #DeathBed.
#JasonBourne, #TheHobbit…
All about people being complete shits to each other & being greedy & killing and…
Not so successful when trying to cheer yourself up, but forced to acknowledge, once again, #HistoryEverRepeats.
