    I didn’t look past that, it’s the whole point

    It’s a shitty people becoming better. But it’s a people trying to be better. It’s people who believe they are better, and when it’s pointed out to them that they’re actually assholes they’re humbled enough to listen to the person calling them out. They glorified them as wise men blessed by their god

    They were proud of themselves for treating their slaves better than the civilizations around them, they prided themselves on being conflicted about going to war. These are good things… But you’re not supposed to copy them. You’re not supposed to go back.

    You’re supposed to also strive to be better
