Well I’m glad you were able to look past all of the genocide and glorification of slavery, and pick and choose which parts of the book suit you… Err wait…
It’s a shitty people becoming better. But it’s a people trying to be better. It’s people who believe they are better, and when it’s pointed out to them that they’re actually assholes they’re humbled enough to listen to the person calling them out. They glorified them as wise men blessed by their god
They were proud of themselves for treating their slaves better than the civilizations around them, they prided themselves on being conflicted about going to war. These are good things… But you’re not supposed to copy them. You’re not supposed to go back.
