Many. Pretending that you don’t benefit from past criminality is passively doing the same thing which seems to be the default of a lot (most?) white westerners.

Criminality is a tricky one. What was legal in the past may not be legal nor ethically sound today.

Criminal or not the golden rule has been around for a long time. People know that which is reprehensible, it’s those things that they do not wish to be done to them.

Lots of people eat meat today. I can imagine a future where this is seen as immoral and not following the golden rule. But for some reason, humans currently choose not to apply the golden rule to animals.
Similarly in the past, they didn’t apply it to indigenous people.
