The thing is that while the ship may not be carrying those specific issues along with them, it is carrying the roots and seeds of every one of those things! Those who do not study history are doomed to repeat it.

It's quite possible that I noticed this as quickly as I did because of the current American political similarities to Germany in the early 1930s, and the number of people who seem completely oblivious to same. The relatively few survivors of WWII are universally sounding the alarm, and the people who are too young to remember, and think John Wayne war movies are documentaries, are refusing to listen.
