Yeah, all of that, that was the party program of the NSDAP, a political party.

Abolish the death penalty everywhere.
A small amount of inflation is good actually.
Frankly, I think this is new territory. We have a new kind of phenomenon: stochastic terrorism, that has specifically as a vehicle the virality of social media. I don't think old absolutes, like the American First Amendment, are useful, sort of like how your Second Amendment was written at a time of muskets, not assault weapons. Social media virality plus algorithms that prioritize engagement at all costs (including via rage) over accuracy are a new thing, causing a new problem. It's right for courts, legal scholars, and lawmakers to be taking on this problem.
Your concern over balancing the different social goods is of course legitimate and at the centre of this debate.
You're conflating a political ideology with a culture.
Chalcedonian Christianity is also Nicene, i.e., Trinitarian: one being in three cosubstantial persons. They share the divine cock and balls, one would say.
Nah, in its internal logic, Chalcedonean Christianity doesn't have this problem. Jesus is defined as fully human and fully divine, and peeing is just part of being human.
I think the king is being a lightning rod in this case, not sure what a ceremonial rich dude could have done.
That said, this should be a red alert warning to the entirety of Europe. It happened in Austria last month, in Greece last year and it's going to keep happening. We can't keep doing business as usual, the climate crisis is here.
Now the Israeli centre-left is the enemy. Fascism is a death cult. If left unchecked, this will go on until they self destruct.
I don't know what that means. European countries have multiple cultures in them.
That said, your catchphrase is typically used to imply that Islam is incompatible with Europe. But there exist several countries in geographical Europe with Islam as an established religion. Greece has an official Muslim minority. Bosnia, Albania can be classified as plurality-muslim countries. European Turkey, west of the Bosphorus has more people than many European countries. And there are sizeable non-immigrant Muslim communities all over eastern and southeastern Europe. Islam has been part of the European story for a millennium. So I don't know what the fuck you're talking about. Islam is as European as apple pie is American.
No disagreement that the fascists in the west are taking notes, of course.
But the first part of your post implies that nobody is doing anything. I responded to that.
Frankly, I am actually at a loss at what else could be done and it's heartbreaking. The taliban are inventing a whole new type of apartheid at the heels of decades of western intervention. Russia just recognized them and seems to be the only country able to engage them. I got nothing but impotent rage.
Yes, and changing the culture of a country is a political program.
Here is the difference: babies are not born into a political program, they are born into a culture. You don't grow up into a political program, you grow up into a culture.
Political programs are typically rooted in some culture and sometimes, a political program can become a culture, but a culture is not in itself intimately linked with a political program. In the same culture you can have multiple competing political programs in fact.
