"Systematically"?

What does it mean for an action to be "consider[ed to be] systematically in the past"? What does the "systematically" mean in this context?

Bonjour Stevie !

Here what we meant was : "In French, if you're using ''après + verb'', we consider that this action is always going to take place in the past of when you're speaking."

Thanks to you, we've now changed the lesson text to make it clearer :)

Merci beaucoup et à bientôt !
