No, you make patently ridiculous comments; so you aren't "simply watching......" at all. Pity that, because you would be served by "simply watching".
Again, with the words, nopardons.
Some very interesting things happened in history simply because all the matches were laid upon the camp fire in just the correct position. Only took one little match for flames to cross the world, weather via war or in-country revolutions.
Our own history with the election of Pres Trump is an excellent example. All the populist matches were laid out and a man coming down an escalator was the match that caused a political power-shift.
So yes, I’m fine with simply watching history.
It’s fascinating, don’t you think?
