From The History of Florence by Niccolo Machiavelli:
Nor is it possible for a
public to enact a law more pernicious than one relating to matters which have
long transpired.
Machiavelli was discussing here the fate of the ammoniti, or the descendants of the Ghibellines who were banned by law from holding any office of government in Florence after the victory of the Guelphic party in 1356. He states that this law "laid the foundation of many evils" and noted "none felt so particularly injured with it as the Ricci; for they knew themselves to have occasioned it, they saw it involved the ruin of the republic, and their enemies, the Albizzi, contrary to their intention, became great in consequence."
History always repeats
itself. The direct attacks on the First Amendment rights of
Americans by U.S. citizens who are not, and never will be, Americans, are not
only going to fail, they are going to ruin the republic and make great their
enemies.
There is a reason the
Prometheans don't want you to study history and why the Shapiros and Pragers
relentlessly lie about it and retroactively attempt to revise it. There is
nothing new under the sun. If you know history and you recognize which patterns
apply to current events, you will have a very good idea what is going to
happen.
