There’s no such thing as a right or wrong side of history.

If the allies lost WW2 the right side of history would involve singing the Horst-Wessel-Lied with your morning coffee.

It is only thanks to human sacrifice and spirit of will that we don’t.

What about Perestroika? Which side of history was the right/wrong one there, the USSR or the RF?

Is the modern Polish or Ukrainian state on the right or wrong side? Israel and Palestine?

History is history, there’s just one and it’s written by humanity.

Easy. The ones pushing for autodetermination, for everyone (including women) are on the right side of history.

[edit] and yes, that mean that despite my dislike for the liars who pushed and implemented brexit, accepting this new relationship was the right thing to do.

It's thanks to the spirit of will that we're not Nazis? That's what they said would lead to everyone being Nazis...

When you take the perspective of those to the East of the Nazi regime, every victory, every person alive today and every inch of border is because some humans 80 years ago willed it into existence at the cost of their life. It’s why Ukraine perseveres today, and why Poland is considered a bulwark of NATO.
