Back only 3 year ago, if someone had suggested that politicians and many citizens of any western nation would be introducing laws for the segregation of people based on any aspect, many, if not most would have probably replied with something along the lines of:
"Your are crazy" or "Your off your rocker mate"
Well, in 2020 and in 2021, numerous nations out there, particularly in "Western Democracies" literally not only brought about laws that were solely for the segregation of human beings, but also put those laws into practice.
Some did it in ways that seemed to be somewhat less dramatic, other governments did it outright to extremes of actually building facilities, such as camps, for these purposes.
I personally live in one such country, a "Western Democracy" that built and is still in the process of building facilities for the segregation of human beings.
As with every case of segregation through the course of history, the "leaders" try to justify their laws and actions with all sorts of "rationale". So much so that many citizens start to agree with segregation being legalized and enforced. Saw it, lived it, am still living it.
How far have we "advanced" as humanity?
idk, but technological advancements can't replace morality and immorality, these terms are not interchangeable and when someone talks about "advancements" and how "this generation of people on this planet is better than the generations of yesteryear", ask yourself:
"Did the generations of yesteryear work towards the outright disapproval of segregation of human beings on any basis?"
I'll even give you a couple of pointers to find the answer to that question:
i) Look up "Universal Declaration of Human Rights"
and
ii) Look up "Nuremberg codes"
You will find the answer there.
I bet that most politicians supporting segregation, just like most people who are supporting it or simply accepting it as "the new norm" won't direct you to those two "pointers" when they are trying to "justify" their thoughts, words and actions.
THINK ABOUT IT.
Do you accept segregation of human beings?
