I find the media, here and in the UK, have become more accepting of racism. Encouraging it. Against blacks and mexicans and muslims here, and against polish and refugees there.

This creates an aura of conformity as viewers and readers nod to the views of their favorite talkers eventually absorbing them into their own.

The ultimate effect of this can be seen in the Rwandan genocide. It was the radio that made people do it in that case.
