Not the deepest philosophical insight but damn if this isn’t some incredible comic panel construction.
I’m pretty sure I still understand many past events in the chronological order
Nah.
World War 2 started with the surrender of the Axis powers and nuking of Japan.
It ended when Germany invaded Poland.
I’ve heard this same concept expressed as, “we walk backwards into the future”. We can’t see what’s coming, only what has happened. (We can predict what’s coming based on what’s happened, but there’s always uncertainty.)
