It's just that American history is so...new, ya know? Now Chinese history, Egyptian history, dating back thousands of years...that I find cool, for some reason.
Prothean history? I'd be all over that! What was their culture like, in-depth?
Turian history? Anyone? Bueller?:/
For me, it gets harder for me not to judge someone for the horrible stuff they did when their moral code is in anyway similar to mine. The sack of Jerusalem I can read about all day but slavery or manifest destiny bugs the hell out of me.kglaser wrote...

This is amazing. You are amazing and you should feel amazing.
:lol:
God, no! Because they're so much closer to us. It's easy to read about what crusaders did 900 years ago but it gets tough to see that people like that could have been alive when people you know were alive. After all, the last Civil War veteran died in I believe 1957 or so. My father was born in 1951.Collider wrote...

Ah, I see. That is very true. You're right, it's easier to be upset of things people have done in more contemporary times. I mean less than a century ago we had WWII...it's pretty sad all those things people did. Fortunately I think we are progressing more and more towards human rights.drunken pyromaniac wrote...

True, but history teaches us that there are inevitable backslides. Dark ages strike most every civilization. We haven't had ours yet.Collider wrote...

Turians are a little too fond of the "bomb em' back to the stone age" approach though.kglaser wrote...
Never underestimate the depths of human depravity. We could all do with some 'turian honor'. /sagenod
True, I shall shut up. I'm too cynical probably.Collider wrote...
We've done a lot of good things too, we can't overlook that. The fact that many of us strive towards human rights is a testament, I think. It seems like it can only get better...we have many reservations towards war that we didn't thousands of years ago. We only have a few tyrants around now.
Eh, give us a millenia or two.Collider wrote...
A shame it seems likely we'll never find one. The universe is incredibly vast...

We all need more cheery notes.Kotori Ky wrote...
On a more cheery noteeeee, Isaved Garrus on insanity and I only died twice! /is incredibly proud of herself
Also, human history is rife with moments where we f'ed up royally. I doubt any other species is any different. Hip hip hooray. Live and LEARN. :3
Now... back to drinking, ME2 Insanity, and Garrussssssss. /hugs him He'll help me get Mordin! Finally, the dream team is together again. /huggles Kasumi and Garrus

Just think of caveman huddling for warmth. One probably said to another, "Someday there will be indoor heating!" to which the other replied "But I'll be deeeeaaaaad!"Collider wrote...

No, I think you have a good reason to be cynical. Lots of bad history out there. This is a friendly thread, no need to hush if you don't want to
I'm really looking forward to the races uniting against the Reapers in ME3. That seems to be the route they are going for. Then again it's speculation.
