It takes a great deal of courage (most of us do not have it – which is why the world is in such a sorry state) to take a stand, in the face of certain reprisals must require immense fortitude
Talk is very, very cheap! That is why there are so many hateful people online. They know they can largely spew their hate via their keyboards unchallenged
We do not know how good we have it in countries such as the UK, till you look around or read about the goings-on in other countries.
So, when some take a stand against rapidly changing or allowing for too many ideas and new ways of doing things, I hesitate to criticise, unless of course, when the choice of language is needlessly vile. We should be able to put arguments across, without resulting to demeaning language. But in truth, we need to keep some things exactly as we’ve always had it e.g. not littering, not allowing anyone to hold the office of Prime Minister for longer than 4 years and no more than two or three consecutive terms, not allowing anyone to be too far above the law (the affluent are clearly above the law in most instances, as we continue to witness with Donald Trump and co. But thankfully, the minute they begin to stray too far above, they get clipped to size)
