      The full quote is
      " Progress, far from consisting in change, depends on retentiveness. When change is absolute there remains no being to improve and no direction is set for possible improvement: and when experience is not retained, as among savages, infancy is perpetual.
      Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it. "

    For all these kids saying "This is soooo relevant today" don't understand that the older generations see where all this social unrest will take us. They don't seem to grasp that we've been through this before, the names may be different but there are not many problems today that humanity has never seen before. The meaning of that old saying 'If you ignore history you are doomed to repeat it' must have flown right over these kids' heads. Every generation of young people have worried that we are a few years away from the end of the world, and every generation of young people believe today's social issues are completely unique.

    "the more we change, the more we stay the same"
    this is basically what the speech warns of, because while we have advanced, and to an extent evolved, we haven't truly changed. the negative mentalities of old are still plaguing the new generation because of those in the older generation who have the problem and won't let go of it. new problems keep spriging up due to the effect of this form of aged negativity, and i personally agree with one thing that the speech is essentially saying, it needs to stop.

    I feel like the message of Charlie’s speech will get muddled in today’s political climate. People will interpret it as “let’s unite against the left” or “let’s unite against trump” which only divides our people even more. It makes me sad that we live in a time where something that was used to unite is now doing the opposite

      The film was actually written, and had started shooting just before the war broke out. Even the UK wanted to Ban the film due to its criticisms/mockery of a certain man… But the UK revoked that decision when we joined the war at the end of ‘39. The ending was also allegedly changed from a whole comedy bit, to the now famous speech where Chaplin breaks character due to Germany invading France.

So far, I’ve seen a lot of youtubers who stay silent or “in the middle ground” because they don’t want to lose their following. I understand that a paycheck’s a paycheck, though, so they won’t let their thoughts be known and I won’t hold that against them. But in my personal opinion that’s a coward’s move.
