Here is a big difference though. The Jews of the 30s were mostly quite moderate and modern for the Time. However the difference is now that we have extremists in the Muslim camp that are rarely condemned by other Muslims. And when any condemnation does come from the outside world it is met with THATS RACIST or NOT ALL MUSLIMS instead of rebuttal. So instead of the moderates seeing what is happening here they let the radicals prattle on and alienate those that would help them integrate. What they don't see happening is the potentially genocidal rage they are incidenting and how they are making harder for people like you to hold back.(November 3, 2015 at 4:33 pm)Lemonvariable72 Wrote: You mean the sentiment of trying to shutdown criticism that is legitimate?
Just try the shoe on. And come back after that. Maybe it fits, maybe it doesn't. Up to you.
If only they as a group would show willingness to integrate and condemnation of radicals they would give the batshit crazy right wingers so much ammo to wrong with and people like you could make fools of the Nazis in the public spectrum far more easily.
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
