"It's too late for Germany" (but not for Poland) [1798]
since if the type of society they espouse actually happened, they would be among the first victims.
They're already victimized by the type of society you espouse. People in Britain have been put in a cage for SAYING mean things about Islam, an ideology, like all other ideologies which deserves intense scrutiny and criticism. I've read the things they said, and I don't find any of them to rise to the level of inciting hatred. Speaking the truth about certain dark aspects within a broader group/ideology/society is not inciting hatred. It may lead to that, because those bad actors are doing things which are generally uncivilized and have no place in a modern 1st world democracy, but that is the ideologies problem, not the people who point it out.
We have REAL problems in this world Jon. People are food insecure across the world, 947 million people still use an outside toilet. Yet the society you espouse wants to spend our valuable legislative time deciding what bathroom a mentally ill person who thinks they're a sex other than the one they were born with wants to use. You look at the push back and say "uneducated" "hillbillies" or add some other insult into the mix toward people who don't subscribe to the society you espouse. Yea, because those people feel victimized when their neighborhoods are over run with foreigners, and when their low-skilled jobs are either sent offshore or taken by people offering their labour for a lower wage. You look at these people with disdain and disgust, and I look at them with compassion. I am blessed and lucky to have had the opportunities I did growing up, and eternally GRATEFUL to have a high paying career that affords me most of the luxuries in life. I know however, that the vast majority of people in my country do not live a privileged life like that, and do not have the opportunities I had. I don't despise those people, I hope that we can improve those peoples lot in life. Btw, by those people, I mean CITIZENS of my country of origin, and non-citizens who are highly skilled and educated that contribute to my country's economy.
