@ageha you're right and theres a validity to "we learned what actually happpened after the fact and gained all the context and separated from the emotion of the moment". I think this touches on a real thing though which is you get a younger person who basically has no embodied historical context or the entire current mileu for an event and just fabricates a worldview around consuming tiny nuggets of factoids

@sun 
i guess if it's something you do have personal experience of? like deployed in war 〇〇, marched in crowd 〇〇, worked at corp 〇〇, but otherwise feels we all have same indirection. are some "direct experience cultural context" elements as well, like "what it's like to call somebody's house and have a family member hand the phone over" kinda stuff, but those fade over years once replaced, even for people who did them

@ageha it's tricky. But a big component of it, and the thing this person mentioned is something I have experienced, is a 19 year old making "documentary" on YouTube, telling me how things "felt" when something happened. And it's like, no, that wasn't the public reaction at all.

Even that can be tricky because maybe you weren't effected but others were. But the thing the image described was so true, being told by a younger person how something was, before they were born, when you were there and embodied in the actual moment
