Love that Alexander Solzhenitsyn quote. There was a period of time when I was trying to get into public education to be a history teacher and noticed how certain atrocities in the 20th century weren't getting the attention they deserved despite their death tolls and similar event/cultural patterns. Assume all historical narratives are false until proven otherwise.
That scarab looks amazing.
