Yo, Sun...

1. Brown and the 'constitution' > This book might change your view: The New Color Line: How Quotas and Privilege Destroy Democracy
by Paul Craig Roberts, Lawrence M. Jr. Stratton
[yes, I've read it]

ST >Here is the thing, what goes on between consenting adults, be it on individual level or organizational level, should not concern others<

wp> Understand, the cultural rift doesn't arise from the view above. It rises from an entire set of cultural values that are different. I don't care about your personal values; I merely tried to explain 'why' there is a cultural rift ... and why it affected the election.

Liberals, tree-huggers, etc., often fail to appreciate they desire to limit the freedom of others, even as they define themselves as self-styled 'progressives.' Left coast liberals are not progressive, IMO. They are perfectly willing to stereotype 'others,' even as they decry sterotypical thinking.

I don't understand your question about Arabs.
