"doesn't like killing ghouls"

uh...*stares at Shironeki*

He had no problem going after ghouls he saw as bad people, and he's basically doing the same at the CCG for the most part. However, he still doesn't enjoy it and despite the dogma instilled in him, he still makes an effort to spare ghouls whenever he can, even before he started seeing people he once knew (e.g. the taxi driver at the beginning).

Besides, though he still experiences prejudice from some people, there are still quite a few who like him. Heck, his very existance is a challenge to the CCG's propaganda of ghouls being inhuman monsters. If he remembers again, he'll be better able to counter prejudice because then he'll remember the ghoul side of the story.

And if he meets up with Amon and learns of the shady things the CCG does, he could actually help sow the seeds of doubt that would lead to the downfall of the CCG as it is now.

Let's face it; Kaneki has an advantage now that he didn't before. Before, it was easier to dismiss ghouls as total monsters. Now we have the anti-thesis of that walking around. He is already seen as a person by at least some people, and only the really prejudiced people (e.g. Ui) still see him as only a ghoul rather than a person. Once he remembers, he can then challenge the notion more actively (though he'd still have to be subtle about it).
