Quotes by Sasha Polakow-Suransky (?)

“the people who saw the victories of the 1960s and 1970s as major battles that had been won, making sexual freedom, women’s liberation, and gay rights an unquestioned part of Dutch society. For a generation that believed its wars against the church were won, suddenly there was a regression; those old victories seem tenuous.”

Fear of fundamentalist Islam (which poses a genuine security threat) and animosity toward refugees (who generally do not) have been conflated in a way that allows populist far-right leaders across the world to seize upon ISIS attacks as a pretext to shut their doors to desperate refugees who are themselves fleeing ISIS.”

“Modern liberal democracies have two crucial characteristics: they seek to reflect the will of the majority through elections and to protect the rights of minorities by enshrining them in constitutions and establishing independent judiciaries to check the power of popularly elected leaders.19”
