That's what I use to tell my elderly Jewish friends when they were telling me of life in 1930/1940 Germany and later I said the same to my black South African friends who recounted life under apartheid.

Lost message here it seems. It's not really about right or wrong or even about needing to make a judgement call. Before even thinking about a judgement, just take the time to view a situation from another person's perspective.

Goes without saying, of course.
I simply dislike trivial wisdom which purports to be life directing philosophy.

That is really good.
