Watching #TheMatrix with my daughter. The 90s were the peak of our civilization. #GenX

edit: I get that the kung-fu bullet time scenes are fun but before they go back in to save Morpheus, I thought we were supposed to care about the other people living their lives (even as cops, not agents).

"What we really ought to learn from history’s grotesqueries isn’t “different strokes for different folks” or “we’re so much better than them.” It’s that we’d better be humble about our own virtue if giants like Macdonald could go so wrong on some issues. [...] So it’s worse than facile to assume if you’d lived back when you’d have supported Aboriginal rights or abolition. You’re not that great."
