I agree. But I think it might be time for humanity to get over this shit. We’ve been killing each other about stuff old people did years and years ago. Let’s move on and use that money and time to improve things for everybody, no matter where you live or what you look like.
Part of the problem is people acting like all that stuff is ancient history and not relevant anymore. Yet almost all violent problems around the world still are directly or indirectly caused by european colonialism that destroyed societies and meddling by so-called “western” states, who felt entitled to rule over everyone they defined as “uncivilized”.
On top of that these “western” states still use their influence to enrich themselves on the backs of peoples of “third world” countries and calling it “global free trade” or “spreading democracy”.
If all of that isn’t acknowledged and actively counteracted, humanity won’t ever get over this shit.
As someone living in one of those third world countries, that went through all the “truth and reconciliation” stuff, the redistribution of wealth is not going too well for most of the formerly disadvantaged. At least it is fairly peaceful here, we actually have german people buying property, as a getaway hole for incase things gets too out of hand in Europe. But anyway, maybe you’re right. Honestly, I don’t really care anymore, I was mostly just being facetious with my original comment. Peace to you and yours, typing on the phone is a pain.
