They have before. The results have been noted. Germany was one place where intolerant groups rose to prominence through eventual consensus.

It just happens that on these little internet message boards, the consensus shifts in another favour, and the same seems to be [mainly] true in North American societies, amongst others.

If there is no principle behind the desire to oppress, it is just an application of violence.

You won't get consensus out of me for that.
