History Repeats, Repeated

Confirmation-bias is only natural, but also something to actively watch out for when trying to make sense of your place in society and space-time. Still, on this occasion I'm glad to see my article from two days ago confirmed and elaborated upon.

When I wrote "Why History Repeats", two days ago, I was trying to explain why I think our human history is littered with armed and other conflicts. In my own way I wanted to make clear that war is unnatural, that these huge armed conflicts where whole populations are thrust on a particular path in history, and how that path was planned for by a small elite. But I deliberately kept it very general, without going into too much detail and specific examples in history, other than pointing out our most recent fork (Hard Fork? ;-)) in our path through time, 9/11, and how we're probably victim once again of these scheming men behind the curtain.

The very next day one of my favorite YouTubers, James Corbett from the corbettreport, posted a video with the title "History Is Written By The Winners"; you can imagine I jumped on that immediately, carelessly pushing aside any concerns about confirmation-bias ;-) Now he starts the video by referring to his three part series "The WWI Conspiracy", which I knew were there, but hadn't watched yet, so eventually I spent almost three hours, spread over a day and a half, watching these four brilliant videos.

_{History Is Written By The Winners}

The three part series is about who was behind the Great War and shows how the actual events that led to this horrific war are nothing like what we've been told at school; I'll link these at the end and invite you to take the time to watch them. As always Corbett provides the links and documentation he used, as well as past interviews with experts on the subject. But I was especially delighted with the above linked video in which he dives into how the popular historical account of that war was designed by the very same elite that designed the war in the first place. He explains how the nations' "academia" and scholars, as well as many educational and historical institutes and "foundations" are bought or erected by the very same people.

Contrary to my article, the videos give rich and detailed information about one of history's shaping events and how the public perspective on that event has been carefully manufactured. So if you've got time left after watching "History Is Written By The Winners", please take the time to watch "The WWI Conspiracy", they're about half an hour each.

Part One: To Start A War

Part Two: The American Front

Part Three: A New World Order

I'd like to thank James Corbett for all the work he's done on these videos, as well as his other work. And I'd like to thank you, dear reader, for showing interest in this important topic :-)
