I'm old enough to remember when self-described "liberals" used to say that what went on between consenting adults was no one else's business.

- gaius 9y agoRight. That's what disturbs me about this. Everyone is a product of their time. Would the people applying 2018's standards today have applied 1968's standards, if they'd happened to be born 50 years earlier? Would they have been homophobic, opposing interracial marriage, and all the rest? How will the people of 2068 judge them?
