I've said this ish before.
Every race and civilization has done terrible things.
And I also find it odd posts aren't being deleted in this thread.

my point is the morality shifts and evolves and I find it increasingly annoying how people love to apply todays morality standards to those in the past
Like slavery? What about Nazi Germany? What about Sudan? Former Yugoslavia?

Would you say the members of the societies you named (Hitler's Germany, Mao's China, etc.) accepted the actions of their leaders on their own accord or because they didn't really have any other choice?
Something close to a majority supported the actions of all of those leaders... especially for Mao and Stalin.
Right now in some parts of India it is culturally accepted to sacrifice children if one of their Hindu holy men asks for it (in limited areas). In these areas there is no consequence. How can a moral relativist claim this is immoral?

But even in that one, the troglodyte natives were portrayed as being other than the prevalent Native American culture.

When disease is wiping out 90% of the population, folks get desperate.

we slaughtered them.
Who's this "We" you speak of?
I haven't killed anyone. I grew up going to school with Choctaws. I got in a fight with one when I sang Cher's 'Cherokee Nation" at him changing the words to Choctaw Nation. he said, "I'll Choctaw your nation", and hit me. We fought in the middle of the street, but no one was killed.
He was on my Little League team, and ended up being pretty good in sports. He had a hot big sister and a goofy brother.
