npub1hpcdfjpxrawnmu6ryh36ce7xu4qd54pu6xca394yhvmyzlery0tqvghjn3 (npub1hpc…hjn3) Kinda same as with the "Yugoslav Wars", or with the revolutions ending the "Soviet" empire.
Those that were the elite remember it as everything being fine (or extremely much better than now at least) and their children get infused with that narrative, so it becomes their truth.
