Cultural relativism aside, I’m sure we can agree on “terrible” if we talk it out. I’m not asking for a “well X country is worse than Y country, so, Y country isn’t THAT bad”. I’d say for this discussion we can go as far back as 1800 for “past” as I’m currently convinced there isn’t a country with a perfect track record going back even that short a time.

    The people getting downvoted for calling it out are somehow the bad guys, but the people upvoted in disagreement they genocide is bad is are the good guys.

    Sorry you’re too privileged to know better. Must be nice.
