Let’s say, arguendo, that’s true. I don’t agree, but let’s say it is. That some of a generation may think their generation worse does not at all show that the generation is, in fact, better or worse. The generation before the Civil War probably thought things were getting worse. They were right. Only if they hated black people fighting for their freedom. Now that’s rather in bad faith. How about if they hated that 750,000 Americans, black and white, would die in a ravaging civil war? That the North fought for a noble cause does not reduce the terribleness of a terrible conflict, and your implication does your argument no justice. But if you don’t like my analogy, substitute one of your own. The point stands.
