I mean, so what? If one of my ancestors fought in a war defending their/my country's freedom, I don't get to claim credit for what they did. I am privileged that those ancestors made the sacrifice they did and don't have to fight in a war myself.

I believe there’s more nuance here.

If both of my grandfathers fought in WWII and neither of yours did, my parents are likely to have picked up a lot of latent trauma that yours did not.

I believe the lower classes in this country are less “privileged” for their freedom , on average.

Of course, the more time passes, the smaller this effect.

Interestingly, trauma and chronic stress gets passed through genes too.

Precisely.
