    Sure, but what we are going to do about it now matters far more than what we’re going to do with the people no longer in a position to do anything about it.

        There’s sure gonna be a lot of them if we spend all our time wringing our hands about what they’ve done in the past instead of preventing it in the future!

          You can’t prevent anything from happening in the future if you refuse to keep wrong doing in the past relevant

            You can’t learn from the past if you spend too much time living in it.

                Not a single person in the world can fix all issues all at once. Most people can barely keep one important thing in their mind at a time. We have too many things to worry about to obsess about a group of people who have almost no power anymore. If the time comes when the pendulum swings back in their direction, sure, it’s worth making it an issue… but the world is on fire and you seem to be spending an inordinate amount of time buying gasoline.

                Stop trying to fight every battle all at once, and most importantly stop trying to get everyone else to care about every battle you’re obsessed with fighting. They’ll just end up treating it like everything else, too much to deal with.
