I think an analogy to the Civil War is useful. The war was about slavery, but the North wasn't initially fighting for abolition and its leadership were, by contemporary standards, white supremacists. We still remember it as a righteous cause. And we should! — PolitiTweet.org

@janecoaston It's also weird to single out Spielberg as someone who whitewashed the war's brutality, as if the opening scene of Saving Private Ryan didn't exist — PolitiTweet.org

The way we talk about World War II and the Civil War as moral causes speaks to our contemporary values, working to strengthen public values against bigotry and indifference to far-away suffering. That does really important normative work for the American project. — PolitiTweet.org
