Relativity is good for perspective, but it does very little to help deal with direct issues.

True, but if you grow perspective, it can assist with problem solving, or, it can reinforce emotional response. The choice is ours.

The problem is, most people focus on reasons to push this topic aside. There is no perspective, no awareness of context. The choice has already been made by many. Ignore it and justify shitty behavior done either by the Natives (left) or the imperialists (right).

It's gross.
