Too late. There is no "enemy" to lynch or forgive because most of the individuals responsible for such abuses are long dead. Their legacy has now subtly ingrained itself into the edifice of Western culture, our norms and institutions. (Now _that_ is really scary stuff. Like "ubiquitous totalitarian death cults, complete with loyal oposition" level of scary, at least if you have an aversion to cognitive dissonance and want your culture and ethics to make sense anyway, only we call it business as usual. Either way, it's disheartening to realize how humanity can ruin things sometimes.)
- codr7 7y agoAgreed, this so called society is rotten to the core. Even our official history admits several incidences of the same scenario. Once all possibilities have been explored, the corrupt end result dies in no time; since there is no substance left holding it together. I'm not after revenge, it just leads back to square 1. But I have an idea how far out the truth will appear to most once fully revealed, and I don't claim to know half of it myself. Truth always finds a way. The natural tendency then is to find someone to project your pain on, someone to hang for it.
