January 6 and the Case for Oblivion
Briefly

"Donald Trump has said, at different times, that he will pardon some, most, or even all of the January 6 insurrectionists.... His pardons can be understood only as part of his alarming-and alarmingly successful-attempt to rewrite the history of the day that nearly brought down our democracy."
"When two sides have viciously different experiences of an event, how do you move forward? You do a version of forgetting, although it's more like a memory game, Kinstler says, 'a kind of collective agreement about how you're going to move past something that is fundamentally irreconcilable.'"
