    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.
