Just because folks were outraged doesn't make it any less normal.
For example: It is normal for low-paying jobs in the US to require drug tests, even though there are folks that think this is outrages and could even be harmful. All it really takes is enough folks doing the act or for such things to remain a legal part of being able to do some jobs.
- danharaj 8y agoWhat kind of definition of normal is that? History is conflict and struggle. You don't understand that conflict by calling it "normal".
- Broken_Hippo 8y agoSomething being normal is simply widely practised or widely encoded into law. It doesn't make it right or without struggle nor does it take away from the conflict. It was part of the reason there was conflict and struggle. Knowing what was normal - widespread, encoded in law, and other such things - is part of understanding what the struggle was all about. Normal doesn't equal correctness, just what was average and widespread at the time.
