In the immediate future maybe indulge it a bit but be aware of when others are moving on and check that you are too, don’t surround yourself with others that also ‘never forget’. If you hold onto it long enough you become a bitter rambling irrelevant old fool. Seen it happen to an immediate family member who got into the habit of looking backwards instead of forward. So my suggestion is ‘ make sure that ‘ never forget’ doesn’t become a permanent mindset.’
All the best.
Very much agree. Go back to Nov 75 and Gough Whitlam's sacking and the "Maintain the rage" war cry. After a few years it just got tired and tiresome, while we should never forget what happened and ideally we should have changed made to ensure it never happens again, the fact that Whitlam lost the subsequent election and Fraser went on to win several elections and become one of the longer-serving PMs shows that Australia moved on while the 'ragers' became bitter and a record stuck in the same groove.
