    When I read history and compare it to ourselves, I can’t help but think we’re livestock that has been trained to be docile. At any other point in history, somebody would have murdered the worst offenders gleefully.

    People in other points in history spent generation after generation living under much worse conditions without murdering their oppressors. Don’t romanticize the past.
