gollark: I think that would be a rally against a rally against a rally against a rally. It's hard to say. Rally stopped sounding like an actual word some time ago.

gollark: Current historians increasingly use lots of past records to assemble a more complete picture of history, instead of just looking at things explicitly written as historical records. There's no reason to think future ones wouldn't do this even more, and we have a *lot* of data on random unimportant people, and the ability to store it basically forever (unless there's some kind of civilizational collapse, in which case it will all just disintegrate into half-remembered legends).
