When present day oppression is justified and modern day genocide is ignored, the people who are responsible will likely continue those behaviors rather than be accountable for them.
I understand you don't want to be accountable for halting genocide. Just remember, you chose to ignore the treaties. You chose to obey unjust laws. The option to be a good person is yours. But my guess is that instead of choosing righteousness you will perpetuate injustice. Because you refuse to learn from the past.
