Their 'moral' certainties, imposed onto others, will brook no tolerance of counter-arguments.
They even control the bulk of the media and education.
They propagandise our young people, aided by the luvvies of pop culture, the theatrical world and so-called personalities.

Mao, Stalin and Hitler were never this successful.
