History Memes to Distract From the Pain of the Present

The world has always been a bleak place. So it should be no surprise that there are myriad wars, conflicts, and tensions flying around us today. From political unrest to pandemics, we've all been dealing with a lot of pain. It's normal that we would all doomscroll our days away, agonizing over what could be done to create peace and tranquility for residents of Earth. Unfortunately, most of us can't really do much to change the course of medicine or decades-long wars. It would be more helpful to your brain to indulge in some reminders that this strife we're dealing with is nothing but new. We know that we can't change the past, but only learn from our mistakes and do better for our future. After all shouldn't we be a smart and more advanced society now?

One of the best ways to refresh that selective memory? History memes. And we've got a whole lot of them right here.
