Apologize for Imagined Historical Wrongs
Apologizing for imagined historical wrongs allows people to parade their moral virtue by condemning the dead and attacking the past. This behavior reflects an attempt to demonstrate unearned moral virtue and devalue the works of great men. This phenomenon is evident in universities, where literary and art critics criticize and demoralize the past to appear morally superior.
