That knife of his is pretty serious, though.

Reply to comment by Eager_Question in How Morality Changes in a Foreign Language - fascinating ethical shifts come with thinking in a different language by fonliahea1994

I'm learning Spanish from English and part of this, I think, is that certain PC language-isms in English don't appear in Spanish. Things are said much more bluntly, without much care put into "offensive" vocabulary. As such, my English brain tells my Spanish brain it's being racist, even if it's not.

It's not even art, it's an artifact. In 1000 years, people will still be talking about Hitler. He's not the kind of guy to just fade into historical obscurity. What survives to that time, no matter how irrelevant, will be priceless.

No one's sitting around saying: "I wish Ghengis Khan would have left less shit for us to study,' but, no, some museum probably has a comb of his or whatever. I say we save the painting and let history decide.
