Empirically the answer is yes. The more wrongs that have been inflicted upon you, the greater your moral standing. So long as you remember and publicize those wrongs. Because if you don't, others will make it seem like you are the sole villain of history, and they innocent victims.
That is what happens to those who forget history - others will remember a self-serving version of that history, full of tactical omissions, for them.
- benj111 3y agoThere's a difference between remembering, and moving on. It's got nothing to do with "moral standing" it just perpetuates a victim mentality. People and countries need to move on. That doesn't mean you need to forget. You need to remember, learn the lessons etc. None of my examples have been forgotten, all have been moved on from.
