Why white conservatives' logic on the CRT is wrong

 I am enjoying the Fox News helpless agony induced by the CRT, reflecting the total misunderstanding of the consequences of their logic. These deep thinkers have a few arguments for why the CRT is wrong. I will not present all of them, but the most strange for me. 1) The current US white population has no slaves. 2) A larger part of the white population came after slavery was prohibited. 3) The black population and any other part of the population now are not slaves. 4)  A large part of the black population has no relevance to the people subject to slavery ... 

At first glance, these arguments look very convincing. They say open and loud - we are not responsible for the past and the people living now have no relation to the past. We regret our past, but it is in the past.

Why does logic not work? The white population is not the majority now. Imagine that the bigger part of the US population makes a genocide against the white minority sometime in the future, and say — our not-yet-born children are not responsible for this genocide. The past is in the past.  Germans already made such a trick and got away without real denazification. Anglo-Saxons made this many times. Essentially, they kill innocent people all over the world without any remorse.  Therefore, they deserve each minute of the CRT.
