      Nietzsche wrote in Thus Spake Zarathustra: All truth is crooked; time itself is a circle. (this is a translation, so there's various versions)

      Basically people here just like Rust and identify with his cynical and jaded outlook, and in our lowest moments agree that we don't want to know anything anymore and history has no justice and truth is crooked. Rust is a cool guy. It's about that simple.

      It also dovetails in with Marx's quote about history repeating itself. Once as tragedy, then as farce. History just keeps happening over and over and getting stupider and stupider and nobody is learning anything.
