So basically erase our almost our entire history from the founding of this country through the Civil Rights Act of 1968?
Now ask the next obvious question:
Why in frick did we allow an Institution so evil to hang around for 350 years give or take?
The fact that the Country allowed that level of widespread evil to become the foundation for life in America, just maybe America is getting what the fvck it deserves

Because as a society, we get better with time. What was viewed as moral and immoral 150 years ago, 300 years ago, 500 years ago, etc is not consistent over time. People are a product of the society in which they are born and raised, not a product of an evolving society, where values change over time. If you try to cast people as evil for things that were not thought to be evil when they lived, then we may as well demonize the entire history of civilization....then in 100 years the society in which we lived now will be demonized for something we accept as well and good but may not be in the future. Is that what you really want?
