Propaganda works.
Twenty years after the fall of the Berlin Wall neither President Ronald Reagan nor Pope John Paul II were remembered as being the real heroes.
Twenty years from now, Ronald Reagan will be portrayed as the villian.
Forty years from now, it will be “conventional knowledge” that the whole hubaloo about how “alleged evil” communism is was just the product of guilty rich manufacterers looking to further enslave the brown people of the world.
Propaganda works.
Well, they’re in heaven now. I’m sure that’s more than enough of a reward.
