    Yeah but not always and besides whose to say that we are requesting the past, or whether we’re really just experiencing an increase in empathy beyond our usual limits? Maybe this is our evolution that we’re experiencing, just like COVID may have been China’s black death…

      What do you mean covid may have been China’s black death? China experienced yersinia pestis back when it was plaguing Europe, so black death was already China’s black death, maybe even before it was Europe’s black death.
