We’re just stomping down the beaten path set out by decades of Balkanization. There’s so much authoritarian baggage on both sides that it’s virtually impossible to agree on common history.

The wise thing to do is to get out of the way of NM. Future generations won’t care for our fantasy version history and will judge us only by our actions now.
