It does make us better. Very much so.
We didn’t set out to commit genocide against a race. We didn’t industrialize a process to do that. We didn’t rationalize it in a thousand different ways.
It is terrible that we tortured. But there is no comparison between us and the Nazis, any more than there is a comparison between Lincoln, as someone who made some iffy constitutional moves, and Hitler.
