Does this mean we can't 230 years later try to find a common purpose as a multicultural society ?? No .. of course we should strive for that together.
But we also shouldn't forget history ... a smarter person than me said "you don't know who you are .. until you understand what you are not .."
So BongKong by your logic we should forget and stop "harping on" ....
- Anzac Day
- Jewish genocide by the Nazis
- Pol Pot/ Khmer Rouge killing millions of their own people
- The Boxer Rebellion in China
- The Trail of Tears in Cherokee USA
Etc
I say "forget that shit" at our collective peril if we aspire to be just and accretive members of the human race.
