It's funny (not ha ha funny) how people don't learn from history. There was a surge in right-wing populist sentiment in the 1930s and we all know how it ended. Having said that I understand why people lean right. Progressive governments made the normal people's lives hard - forcing political correctness, ignoring illegal immigration and the issues caused by it, allowing petty crime go unpunished and so on. People are just tired literally fighting for their lives and are voting for populist parties that promise the good old days to return.
Ah yes, all those people literally fighting not to die from political correctness.
It's interesting how people nitpick on least important things to ridicule valid argument. I was referring to ignoring crime just because the offender was the minority. But since you brought PC to the light, cancel culture has made so many good things to the people...
Nah, better to sacrifice a twenty year old to weinstein every year, cancel culture would make me have to think about my words before I say them
