I hate to say it, but that is an exceedingly poor argument. Right and wrong are absolute, however, acts of evil may be justified depending on the situation irregardless of whether or not we like them. Facts are facts and no matter of oppinion can alter that. The answer to the question of 'What is good and evil' can simply be summed up as 'Actions which benefit society and do no harm and actions which do not aid society.' But of course there is the middle ground, the section where society bsnefits, but harm is done in some way. Good and evil ARE absolute, but circumstances alter justification, not perspective.
Wow, ereasing history? That is STUPID beyond comprehension. It is a true statement that those who forget history are doomed to repeat it. Which is why Japan will fall back into Imperialism and their inhuman treatment of people again here soon. Their modern text books do not detail any of the crimes they committed. There is no mention of Comfort Women and no mention of Nanking.

It is a very true statement. In the end no matter how much truth is spoken or facts given it still boils down to individual choice. His comment is based on this then the history part backs it up: when history is erased so goes the truth and any evidence or facts. To some we see things in absolute terms of black and white but this is more of that "gray area" where peoples emotions, faith, personal beliefs and circumstances play in. To you he is dead wrong... However the observation itself is based on how people act in general.
"My nation, right or wrong!" Or even perhaps this: "The ends justifies the means."
Try arguing absolute right and wrong with a suicide bomber or christian who is joining into a war because the TV man said it was a holy crusade against islam. You get the same effect: Do you PERSONALLY agree with the justifications given?
Of course I cant have Valkardian explaining all that in detail because... There is no basis in Equestria so he does the best he can.
Here is what I tell people: "Who is right and wrong depends on where YOU are standing when that first bullet cracks over your head."
