IMHO you cannot change the past but you can definitely shape the future. There are very few things that are worth “glorifying” once you go behind the curtain and see/know how the sausage is made
One point is to look at the far last (2 thousands years ago) and one point is to see the recent and contemporary history.
We have countries like the US that have been bullying and fighting wars around the world since the end of the world war two, yet we're here to discuss how many gladiator and lions were killed two thousands years ago
As always you can't feel how smelly is your breath but you're easy to spot a small dot in someone's eye
I'm here to show how empty these arguments are as compared as what happened next in history or even on how we treat people in some war zone nowadays
So said, is not that hard to understand that the article was about showing something that was hidden before and now is available to everyone to visit. Nobody is hiding or denying what happened there, every Italian school teaches it without propaganda.
Yet, many comments here are about "how so many people died let's not go to visit it". Like this is not even the sense of the article?
These comments brought the political consideration into picture and I'm just showing how weak these are.
