      the creation of an intellectual eLiTe that gets negligible exposure to the history of western civilization and intellectual history in particular is probably the greatest curse of our time I am so mad about this instead we have distribution requirements in psychology good god

      the concentration of history into subdisciplines is separately but further deeply cursed

      especially mad that I more or less had to seek out such knowledge of my own volition rather than having it suggested as a course of action to me my high school AP european history course was a better introduction to the world than anything I took at University maaaaaaad mad mad

          one interesting thing about the revolutionary era is that french elites basically didnt believe in themselves anymore when the revolution came but the english did fine i guess the bourgeoisie had already basically won there and was well-integrated into the elite hmmm

          still kind of incoherent but present era feels more similar to the late 18C to me than eg early 20C, much more first industrial revolution than second suspect american students are very badly served by focusing so much on ww2 instead of the Napoleonic wars

          there is so goddamn much history and it's so interesting, whenever I think about it I feel really ignorant, and I know more history than like 95% of the people I talk to and they're all smart knowledgeable people

          Strategy games got me into history and then art. They are a reservoir of something.
