Mein Lieber Kamerad

Hey guys! Please tell me. How to correctly convey the phrase "rake of history"in English? The context here is such (on the scale of a country or a large society) that only a complete fool steps on the rake many times and gets hit on the forehead every time, expecting different results. And despite this experience, he continues to do it again and again. What should be the phrase to sound natural and understandable for native English speakers?
