Trying to take some imaginary high ground where none exists, because I never said anything about not caring. Trying to take some imaginary high ground by including native Americans and slavery, when the topic is something else entirely. I don't need you to tell me about the Native Americans. My great-great-grandfather was one.

I just don't like the word people are using. I would like the correct word.

"If some "historians" had been left to their own devices, we never would have known the truth about many of these atrocities, so yeah, maybe sometimes the "little people" do know better than "people who have studied history all of their lives." "

Ahh, yes, the "I'm the hero, it's academia that's the villain" justification. unbelievable.

Sorry, most of these things get tossed around in little historian circles, or cultural circles, until the public at large is ready to take notice.

"If we do not look upon these instances for the abominations that they truly were, then we will be doomed to repeat the behavior."

And if we don't look at them as they truly were, without our little ideologies getting in the way, we're bound to make things worse.

Maybe you can climb a little higher on that cross in your next post.
