alt Hacker NewsI fully agree history is important to be known for the premise of not repeating it. But the narative is that 10 generations later depending which side you were on, that somehow your to blame and you owe the losing side something.
The stolen land meme is a good example. My parents in 60s migrated to the u.s and in no way am I to blame or responsible for what occored just because of where I live.
Do I feel bad for what happened? Absolutely. But those were nethanderal times where everything was primitive instinct. Its not the world we live in today.
I agree the narrative of blame is harmful and perpetuates that same pattern.
I also have to point out that the effects of that history persist and affect this generation. Lots of financial effects still affect our society.
