Matthew's Journal

I'm 29, and although the Cold War was going on while I was young, it didn't really affect me in any way I could tell you. I'd say the Cold War definitely does have meaning, but only as history. Now of course we should learn from history, so that doesn't make it irrelevant; but it certainly feels pretty historical to me.

(I speak as someone who's unfortunately generally fairly ignorant about many political things, and was much more so until a few years ago.)
