        No, what they keep remembering is what the various power groups in the area and outside wants them to remember.

        Same reason why Americans believe USA have some kind of supreme mega army, while in reality its quite bad. Sweden could sink most of the naval forces and scrap the jets. 1 gripen can down 14 or more per battle(prooven in multiple nato trainings. Kinda goes against the propaganda).

        Moat people have no own beliefs. There are 3 types of people. The ones on the bandwagon, the ones hating the bandwagon as they personally has been wronged thus gained a reason to whitstand and the pupeteers who has great use of the bandwagon members, but not so much the second group.

        I understand what you are getting at, but well, its been proven wrong countless times. Ask hitler, he was very much right in that aspect.

        Tell a lie many times, and people will start believing in it.

          When I say “countries remember”, I mean the people who take decisions in the name of the country remember. I should have been clearer.

          The general population always forgets, yes. That’s why the world is once again falling for fascism.

            Yes, thats clearer, thanks.

            One should instead ask himself why they do not forget, well, simply because its somwthing that can be used as a leverage when creating scenarios to enrichen themselves.

            Do not limit yourself to one type of ideology, fascism is one that killed and continue to kill many, but most have died due to many other ideologies, were communism is a popular one when it comes to off your own population.

              Well, we’re not falling for communism, so my focus is on fascism at the moment.

              Although arguably the communism you’re thinking about was/is fascism in disguise, not communism. Communism hasn’t really been tried yet - or tried and turned fascist. It’s pretty much a utopic idea at this point.
