I'm no great fan of Mr Putin, but he has been recently quoted " there are no minorities in Russia; if you live here you conform to our society or you go somewhere else, we do not tolerate we do not accept behaviour which offends our society nor will we tolerate acts against our nation"
That seems to sum up the typical reaction of the posts in this thread, minorities currently hold a grip on media and political opinion far beyond their social influence, and this has the effect of causing resentment among anyone who would normally advocate tolerance.
It would appear that I am no longer allowed to be offended; I am " racist, homophobic, ageist, youngist???" put a label on me if you like. But I still find a lot of behaviour offensive and a lot of that behaviour stems from people that I am instructed I must welcome into my community, how would I fare should I impose myself into another community and demand they conform to my standards, it is frequently difficult enough conforming to those of this forum.
