This is both incredibly historic and clumsily sidesteps the fact that were you in that time, according to your statement, you would have found it ethical.

- chii 3y ago> you would have found it ethical. not having lived that era, it cannot be said which side i would've been on - because it would've depended on which side i was born, and the circumstances i find myself in. The truth is that which ever "ethical" belief that benefits me the most will have been the belief i followed. Most people believe that their beliefs are ethical, but are in reality, just post hoc rationalizations of decisions that benefit themselves (knowingly or not). I am just being clear, rather than try to hide this fact.
- krainboltgreene 3y ago> the only metric to judge [what is ethical] is through the lens of legality You've told us exactly what "side you would have been on".
