Cyclically in this way: history according to Nietzsche is useful because it teaches us that there always have been eagles and snakes; it is disadvantageous when we are absorbing ourselfs in it for so long that we end up only beinig snakes, forgetting to be eagles in the present, so we have to live totally now.........(free translation from Nietzsche in 'Also sprach Zarathustra' (1883-1885))

I know but it certainly makes a lot of good points, even if it makes them by joking around. "Stalin announces five-year 'Everybody Dies' plan" isn't that far off from what actually happened in Russia following World War II.
