It’s ironic that at the end of the Civil War, Lincoln and many of the Union and Southern Generals urged their populations to put the war behind them and forgive each other.
They didn't see a way to make big bucks by keeping it alive.
This is a downside of a "compassionate" society.
In the Middle East, we have wars that get won by one side, and the losing side declares victory and holds a series of parades.
If the Nazi's had done that in the summer and fall of 1945, they would have been massacred. Their "victory parades" would have been fired upon by heavy machine guns, they would have been strafed from the air.
But because of "compassion," these things don't happen today. The result is, you have cancerous societal thought-viruses — mental malware — that grows and propagates and poisons people and ruins their lives, and there's not a thing that can be done about it. Except to do your best to spread the truth and resist the lies, keep your own mental house in order.
It's a result of "compassion," and mass communications technology that makes it possible to spread lies across the world at the speed of light at essentially zero economic cost.
Liberals want to invert the social hierarchy they think existed up to the 1950s, putting whites on the bottom and other minorities on top.
In order to do that, they have to guilt trip the descendants of the guilty into submission.
“Shut up you privileged white person, you’ve inherited their privileged and thus guilt, but we’ll tolerate you if you go to the back of the bus because some of your ancestors made some of their ancestors do exactly that. In the name of fairness, we have to discriminate against you.”
