Well, there is "never again" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Never_again).

It is up to us to decide if "never again" is a universal rule or "oh, but this time it is different".

“Nie wieder ist jetzt” is common graffiti in Berlin right now: “Never again is now.”

This slogan started as a reaction against rising antisemitism after 7. Octobre. A problem which many here just deny (" Germany is again on the wrong site")

We have a monument commemorating children fighting in the uprising: https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pomnik_Ma%C5%82ego_Powsta%C5%8...

And the "W" Hour is commemorated on every 1st August at 1700 hours

Also, if you ever have a chance then head to Warsaw Rising Museum:

I was in Warsaw a few weeks ago and ended up visiting that museum almost on a whim, so I wasn’t prepared for the experience. I don’t think a museum has ever hit me that hard — inspiring, gut-wrenching, and unforgettable.

And the parent comment has been flagged to death until now. What for?

Muzeum Powstania Warszawskiego [1] indeed makes an exceptional work of walking people through the dramatic story of the Warsaw Uprising.

I used to live nearby and was always weirded out by the statue just being one of the required two-minute stops for all the tourist groups. A short monologue, then move on to the next attraction...
