We are outraged by the conduct of people in prior generations. What evil are we perpetuating now that our descendants will be outraged by? That is what we should be focused on.

It's much easier to look at evil from a safe distance; we can feel righteous. When the evil is in the mirror, there's no feeling righteous; it's much more complicated; but we can do much more good by actually stopping it now and rather than feeling bad about it later.

(I completely support also researching and addressing what happened at the residential schools. I'm saying that's the easy part.)

There will be many. Be prepared to say, “we were wrong.”

My pet issue is the mass slaughter of animals for food / factory farms.

I believe today’s normalized routine that builds businesses off animal suffering for consumption or entertainment will be seen as absolutely barbaric.

I agree. No matter your current view on industrial meat production, it's clear to me that at some point in the future people will be saying something along the lines of "We used to grind up animals and stuff the bloody pulp into their torn out intestines."

It will likely be in the lifetime of those who enjoyed dogs at the ballpark. And these young people will look at them strangely.

I'm not. That's a comfortable, lazy cop-out. I'm prepared to do it right. Maybe you and I should eating meat?
