I don't think the future is going to "judge" us anymore than we really judge past civilizations. We realize the mistakes they made were usually due to ignorance just as ours are. The things they'll shake their heads about will probably be things like: Having country policies decided by popularity contests instead of research and (where possible) science. Spending most of our waking hours making people we don't even personally know rich instead of finding a way to spend more time enjoying what little life we had.
