I can see where you’re coming from, but I disagree. No progress was ever made on human rights issues by giving someone a free pass on their problematic attitudes. Civil Rights, Women's Rights, these aren't things that just began with the modern era.
.
I don't think it's necessarily a free pass, but to be judged on an equitable and fair platform. For example, do you eat meat? Buy clothing from the store? Let's say 100 years from now the idea of raising living animals just to eat is abhorrent. Or that anyone who ever owned clothing made from sweatshops was a horrible person. Do you think it's fair for people 100 years from now to say you're a horrible person because you do those things now, when it's the norm and socially acceptable? Especially since maybe by today's standards, you're actually one of the more aware people who tries not to eat factory farmed meat and buy your clothes that were made in sweat shops?
