Part 6/9:
Through humor and sarcasm, Miles reflects on once-hallowed names reduced to absurdities in this new age, highlighting an unsettling disconnection from the past. He recalls characters like Joseph Stalin, Billy Graham, and Charles de Gaulle, now viewed through a distorted lens of history, serving as artifacts rather than legacies of influence. This absurdity strikes hard against the melancholy backdrop of lost knowledge, questioning how society reconciles its past with the present.
