Presentism, which means judging everyone in the past by the standards of the present.

Hey, bad news - we know that the ultimate goal here is to glorify and return to the standards of the past.

We also know that even at the time, the "standards" weren't even that universally accepted. You can criticise us for judging Columbus by modern standards all you want, but the point is that EVEN AT THE TIME everyone thought he belonged in jail.

Which is where he and his brother ended up, for those who might hop in and try to argue otherwise,,,
