No, really.
What did he mean by this?
We've looped back to the mistakes made at the beginning of history. Holocaust soon.

The last 6,000 years of written history doesn't matter because the progressives have fixed everything and changed the natural rules of human interaction

He is the anti-Christ and wants to begin a new timeline where year 0 is his birth.
He means we've passed the end of written history.
>>78113460
It means all of us were actually created last thursday, and our minds were simply filled with memories of a false past
"It's 2016. Don't be in the wrong side of history."
He means that history begins right now, on this day, in this week, this month, this year, this current year
IT'S THE CURRENT YEAR

One theory is this; when looking through time at a galactic scale, we, as a species, are evolving and growing through the infancy of our universe and that we could very well be the progenitors of a vast galactic empire. We may not be the only intelligent species, but we may be one of the first, the giants that future civilizations and even sentient species will stand upon the shoulders of.

Look to the future goy, don't worry about the past

With modern technology we'll be gassing yids at levels that shouldn't even be possible.

I've often wondered if the reason we don't find other civilizations in the universe, despite the overwhelming likelihood of them existing, is because civilizations get to a point where weapon technology becomes so deadly that they simply annihilate themselves before being able to colonize space.
If that's the case, we're close to the end of human history.
>>78114384
I'd rather that there have been progenitors of long dead empires that left the artifacts of their civilization ruined on their homeworlds, so that we may learn from their mistakes and not repeat them.
That would be pretty cool. God damn I wish I still had those "humanity fuck yeah" stories saved somewhere. There was one where humans were actually the first species to explore the galaxy, because they found out that all the other species eventually reach a tipping point of insanity that destroys themselves.
I wonder if progressivism is that insanity.
>>78114729
Or the very beginning. Perhaps we are alone not because we are the last or forgotten, but rather the first and immortal for all time.
>>78113460
shame I won't be around to see it
Who /depressed/ here
>>78113460
I think the correct terminology is still "where we are" in this context. I also think this person tweeted this just to say "when we are" and sound smart.

Like the Fermi paradox?

Hey, sounds like xou might be a special snowflake too.
>>78115084
>living at the beginning of history
is like
>living at home
In this context, the correct word is WHERE. WHERE are you living? At the beginning of history.
>>78115079
Something like that. I think the Fermi Paradox is solved by the possibility that there's some kind of prime directive, and that world governments have incentive to cover up anything that actually happens planetside.
Also, I found some of the stories I was looking for. I know there's more like this.
>>78113460
He means, "COME ON PEOPLE! IT'S 2016!"
>>78114820
Yes, but statistically speaking that is extremely unlikely, given the enormous size of the universe.
There's no reason for us to be the first. The universe is almost 14 billion years old, and there is no reason that civilizations didn't start popping up a billion years ago or more. If that was the case, they could have colonized the universe by now.
The same goes for the earth. That we evolved now, and not 50 million years ago is just random chance. Imagine the enormous technological advancements we could have made if we were at our current point 50 million years ago.
>>78117039
And imagine the enormous technological regress we could be in if we were still single-celled organisms.
>>78114715
I don't think genocide technology has advanced much.

Trump will begin a new era, making all history since the beginning of time, irrelevant

Hey just like the year zero of the first French revolution and that certainly did not end in terror and violence right guys?

Orlando was just the start?

(((Zubrin)))
>>78117422
That's irrelevant. The earth is actually 1.8 billion years younger than the average planet in our galaxy (meaning the potential for advanced life, should have become normal 1.8 billion years ago, if not earlier), and our galaxy alone has 250 billion stars, each with its own set of planets with potential for life. In other words, our planet is fairly late in developing life, if such a thing was even remotely common in the universe.
And this is just our own galaxy. There are another 100 billion galaxies in the visible universe.

A long, long time from now mankind will travel back in time billions of years in order to escape their fate in the heat death of the universe.
