Reminiscences
You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists

Made me laugh. The 50s were a weird time. Everybody smokes, no seatbelts at all with cars ten times more powerful, bacon fat was what we call vegetable oil. Amazing anyone lived through it. And yet they did. Some into their 90s.

The earliest references to this similarity were made in 1596 by Flemish cartographer Abraham Ortelius and later in 1620 by the English philosopher Francis Bacon, in his book Novum Organum, and by French naturalist Georges-Louis Leclerc, count de Buffon, a century later. Toward the end of the 18th century, Alexander von Humboldt, a German naturalist, suggested that the lands bordering the Atlantic Ocean had once been joined.

Nowadays, they'd be banned from a platform or two for saying that stuff or keep quiet to keep the grant money rolling in.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies.
