●I have a similar theory about why UIs are becoming increasingly shite: it's because nobody remembers the problem they were created to solve. So instead of typing obscure commands nobody can remember you have to do an obscure combination of wobbles and shakes that nobody can remember.
But back to the politics. Yes, there are very few people around who remember WW2 and the period leading up to it. There aren't that many who've met anyone that was in it. But FFS, we have writing. Isn't that one of its primary functions - to transmit information beyond a lifespan - then what is?
