we read left to right so the French girl is the one on the left as she mentioned first

Alrighty then, just being clear. Left to right is the convention, but it should never be assumed.

You want to try to piss off a publisher, put pictures in a book/newspaper with names but no explicit explanation or obvious sign as to which is which.

The problem is attitues like THIS RIGHT HERE is alienating people


He's not a spokesperson for the left, he's a random guy online (assuming his gender!). If the online community was the driving force behind every decision we made, we'd probably be sociopaths by now.

Do you think it's any less alienating to hear the rhetoric about your people being criminals, rapists, parasites? To have things done to you or your family that horrify the international community? Or not even be a minority and go through a crisis not of your own doing, and then be turned on and accused of making the crisis up?

Holding the left to account for the actions of the far left is a tricky pill to prescribe during the rise of the alt-right amid the silence of the moderates. I'd expect the right to be pissed if militant misandrists, BLM hijackers and Antifa were elected into positions of power and the left did nothing to rein them in, but i'd also understand why it's not as simple as giving the opposition slack when they start to pull harder.

To push the rope analogy further, you can give them enough to hang themselves with i guess, but that doesn't seem to be working right now, on either side. Moderates may not be pulling anymore, but they're also not very forthcoming in telling the fringes to stop, and in the case of Trump, he doesn't seem to be listening anyway.

Also, though it's arguable that the Dem Party needed a harsh lesson in pushing unpopular candidates and agendas, voting against your principles and out of spite doesn't strike me as something that can be turned around with logic alone. When someone wants a pyrrhic victory, they'd rather eat the ashes than admit they would be better off taking the sandwich that wasn't exactly what they ordered and laying a complaint to get it corrected.

The melting pot falls apart when different fundamentally disagree on the founding tenets of the country and actively try to overwrite those tenets with their own cultures

It falls apart when either side is uncompromising. The answer is not to be uncompromising back, unless you never actually wanted a melting pot in the first place.

Which begs he question as much to the existing as to the newcomers.
