If I knew that everything I have is built on genocide is called human history.

And I have a feeling that if the victims had been more lucky as to be the winners, they would have made more or less the same things.

Well, it's not a question of "if I were the winner" , that's a pretty dumb argument (excuse my French). Reestablishing fairness would still be the same issue with simply the roles reversed.

It's a question of being humane and restablishing fairness of opportunities amongst human beings.

The status quo might be appealing but it can feed needless conflicts between people, sometimes on the sole basis of skin complexion.

I understand that burying one's head in the sand can be appealing but that still shows a lack of accountability and a reluctance to improve Humanity imho.
