Not the first incident either. Remember a while back people working in refugee centers were told to be quiet about being raped by the migrants they were there to help?

Pathological altruism arising from progressive ideology.

There is an out of control trolley speeding towards Jeremy Bentham, who is tied to the track. You can pull the lever to cause the trolley to switch tracks, but on the other track is Immanuel Kant. Bentham is clutching the only copy in the universe of The Critique of Pure Reason. Kant is clutching the only copy in the universe of The Principles of Moral Legislation. Both men are shouting at you that they have recently started to reconsider their ethical stances.

Yugoslavia's back baby...

How the hell did this happen?
Well...we don't actually know. Just sort of happened one day.
Is it a reunited Yugoslavia in the 21st century? Is a rebel colony world in the far future? Is it a race of cyborg neo-life at war with any assimilating organisms they come across in the far far future? Who knows, who cares?
New Yugoslavia just is.

Whats amazing that former liberals, once they are getting against the system, are much more filled with rage an anger than those amongst us who had beforehand some kind of distance towards their former beliefs and worldview.

Lets say one got particulary mad and upset over the terrorist attacks against Charlie Hebdo and later against the Belgium Brussels airport. Their anger and rage was very real, and also understandable. But perhaps the big difference is that I know we're in a war and ongoing crisis while for them it is all the worse, as it is hurtful strikes into the bubble they have created around themself.

Thus their reactions were much more angry and emotional. If those people ever start changing their allgiance out of those reactions then things will get nasty.

And I say that as someone who's - for liberals at least - far out there on the right.

Referring to the tensions and attacks between immigrants and natural-born citizens in Europe as a "war" only serves to alienate the other side further. That rhetoric is exactly how terrorists are made.

Those attacks were carried out by ISIS, respectively Al-Qaida.

But my upset liberal friends did draw unfortunate conclusions, they were quick to draw a generalized connection to "Muslims" immigrants however indirectly. Which is something I wouldn, because the vast majority of people whom I know (or suspect) to be muslim, if on paper only, are an average, diverse, everyday hard working people.

They do not deserve the blame and they run as everyone else if not much more danger to become caught in the crossfire of the ongoing conflict.

When a state uses violence to protect violence of a migratory group that is recognized as an action undertaken in war. It is how the US and Australia expanded and genocided the natives. Turning a blind eye when white settlers shot natives, but flipping out and raving about "The rule of law" when a native retaliated.

This is arguably akin to how progressive and neoliberal governments are treating the white populace vis migrant crime, including encouraging more arriving and so on. It is less widespread and less systemic, but it is there. The ideological root of the behavior is different, but the mechanics and impact are the same.

He called it a war. That's apt. Not all wars are of the same intensity, some are limited. In some cases, this has resulted in whites leaving an area, such as inner london, in part due to increased violence, crime, and hostility from groups the government refuses to police for fear of being "racist" towards them.
