        Their predecessors were perfectly happy to criminalize homosexuality and chemically castrate Alan Turing, all while saying “well at least we don’t practice ritual cannibalism like those foreign savages.”

        Meanwhile THEIR predecessors were ritually grinding up and snorting mummies at parties waited on by veritable slaves. It’s bullshit excuses and racism all the way down. It always just boils down to “well at least we don’t do (thing we were doing quite recently until better people forcibly stopped us)”.
