    Because politics is politics and money is money. That Saudi Arabia is even part of the council is a joke to most people who know anything.

A lot of them were hardcore Catholic, some of them were "I wear a rosary around my neck but don't go to church and don't pray" Catholics.

    It was pretty similar growing up in the South, if you didn't at least pretend to be Christian, you were outcast.
    You lived in South America, which country I'm curious?

    Ungrateful parasites complaining about the life they are able to live in Europe. On the other side, far right parties are gaining more foothold across the central block day by day. Why can't those that rule see that by allowing these... people freely into our midst and without questions we're just brewing our own demise, and possibly by our own hands?

    To be fair most teenagers irrespective of background think they're the pioneer in change

    They actually aren't. They only led a panel within UNHRC, not UNHRC itself. The whole thing about them being the head of it is media misinformation. The presidency right now belongs to South Korea.

    No, but against the lack of religion.

To me it's just an MMOC thing, considering I don't run into SJWs, feminists or Muslims like we see on these forums. And while my real life is not invaded by either side, the SJWs or the antis, my gaming spaces are constantly being invaded by people whining about feminism, SJWism, and multiculturalism, and it gets really annoying sometimes.

    From my perspective, these people see shit reposted on Reddit from various news sites like it is here and their entire world view is based on that. They really need to go outside and see that the world isn't a bunch of hipsters trying to tell them to be guilty for being white, that that really is just select niches of humanity.

    SJWs don't exist irl?



    Let's denounce everyone for regulated immigration as racist in a massive protest! This isn't exactly too uncommon here.

    Just because you don't see it happening where you live, it doesn't mean it's not happening at other places.

    Actually nothing like that happened in Nazi Germany. The Jews that were "Deported" or worse later enslaved, tortured and murdered were pretty much all native born Germans with ancestral claims to all that was taken from them. They were contributing members of society. And political dissenters were hounded and murdered by the secret police, not deported.

    History: Kind of inconvenient.

    That's the issue those. These guys are a minority, but they're gaining more and more influence all the time. Just look at what's happening with universities.

    (These guys are much more common in Sweden though, it is a very weird place).

    No, in fact atheism has been gaining ground in the USA more and more. Sure there are places when they are not so general accepting of religion, but at most they will treat as a lost individual, however they are not going to mock you for not having a religion.

    Perhaps Swedes need to log offline more. Also is that considered massive in Sweden?

    Mock (and you will be mocked and bullied in many areas)? No, you're discriminated against through the law instead. What you're seeing is a rise in big cities like New York, where they aren't that religious to begin with.

    I think it is just "herd effect": people see others posting about it a lot, and join them in that. Indeed, like you, I don't think I've ever encountered any of these things in real life. Plus, people like to blame others for their problems: if, for example, some guy has a hard time finding a woman for a relationship, it is much easier to whine about evil feminists ruining his life and making all women "wrong", than to try to improve the method. These two effects resonate with each other, making people literally obsessed with these topics. Same way, a lot of women having trouble finding a man for a relationship join the "man hate" bandwagon - again, hardly existing anywhere outside virtual spaces, since in real life no one tolerates those folks.
