Nationalism and populism is taking centre stage in the West gradually. This goes to show that the average human is very jealous of his identity and does everything he can to protect it. The progressive leaning ideas of LGBT rights, immigration and the acceptance of Islamic fundamentalism as a form of religious freedom has pushed most people to be skeptical about them. 65 Likes 4 Shares |
