      Gotta wait for the last people who experienced the horrors first hand to finally retire from power.

        Yeah I actually think this is literally why. As a species we can write things down all we want but we struggle to truly understand things we didn’t experience.

          Even our living memory fades fairly fast. Maybe, at best, a couple years before people can be convinced the past is different than it actually was.

      America is involved in waaay more than a war every 80yrs.

      There was Irak, Afghanistan, Kuwait, and Vietnam at the very least.

          White imperialism against white imperialism you mean.

          Given that it took another 100 years from 1860 until formal equal rights regardless of race were established we should mabye just call them wars between white supremacists and other white supremacists.
