There is high value. And there is low value.
Low value discussions should be ignore.

As a guys who reads history to understand the world and not to serve as guidance I need to teach you this:

There are moral standards in a certain era that allows people to do terrible things to fellow human beings.

Impale with bamboo. Enslaving. Break on the wheel. Bondage.

As we become more civilized, we improve on our moral standards. What we cannot do is to look to history and what I call: Milk the past forever.

Thus nothing that we can do today will change the facts that our forefathers did. We learned and improved.

The Japanese man of today is a different Japanese of the past as they learned to break with the past by tragedies that happened only to them. See/ different moral standards.

The Chinese man of the future, will look to the Mao era in horror. Perhaps even looking back with shock with the period 1979-2008 as the rapid industrialization did to China too.
