It's a combination of failed education and the social network hype. People here don't recognize manipulative writings from independent news anymore. The social networks additionally stir people up with their dumbed down political shows, populism and lies.

If you take a look at biger picture it becomes obvious what is happening.

But saying it will mark anyone as persona non grata, so I will leave it to reader to find out where increase in hate and violence is coming from.

Ignore it.

"We all know the reasons but I'm not allowed to say it" is a well known dogwhistle meaning "It's the immigrants and the evil elites not only ignoring these very real problems but actively trying to replace us all with easier to manipulate stupid foreigners". And of course they are right with the second part... saying that bullshit out loud will indeed earn them insults and being called right-wing nutjobs.

Just let people live jfc.

One day I hope bigots get harassed as wholly and completely the way they feel inspired to harass others.

Religion has some great lessons and teachings for peace, but that's never what it actually exports. It's functionally a veil for atrocities and society needs to stop tolerating it they way it does.
