The cultural erasure of Europe is incredibly painful and sad.
Eerily similar to what happened to Notre Dame in Paris.
It also happened exactly 5 years and one day ago. I opened dr.dk (national public service news site) early in the morning to read an article about the restoration of the Notre Dame five years after the fire, and a couple of hours later the front page is about this fire instead.
Once is happenstance. Twice is coincidence....
