but since a nuke is not a

No I disagree your thread is about you magnanimously getting over your perception of your own and other's "hate" for refugees.
Your heading is about people going on a "Hate Fest" - what more do you really want to say? You views on the refugees coming are not exactly what your heading and first post are all about though.

To me ATS seems to be splitting into two distinct groups.
We have a right wing conservative group and on the other side we have a much more progressive group and the two groups are clashing on just about everything. I do not know when it happened, i think it was a gradual thing but ATS is not a conspiracy forum any more rather it is more of a political forum.
I personally think that the Mods need to make some serious changes around here.

Boundaries are being encroached upon, space invaded and new cultures who don't fit into the west are being forced upon us...
But the discussion on ATS is loaded with propaganda, xenophobia and aggressive undertones. As a place to deny ignorance I would have said these threads are out of place and more welcome on the Liveleak boards. I would expect to see unbiased assessments of the situation. Not so.
However - it is the same few members who are displaying the behaviour and they have unfortunately taken their ATS personas to a low level. It's a shame too because some of these hate spreaders were bastions of our forums - not so anymore.
BTW I'm not a sympathiser - I understand the governments have allowed an influx of people - which will have a very negative effect on our societies if we cannot enact change. However if I want to rant and rave about it I'll go to a less prestigious forum.
I have watched it happen, the serious changes have already been made, and this is the result.
Instead of having a bunch of groups everything has been modded into 2 more easily controlled groups, better that way I guess.
The difference is, those of us who criticize any segment of this are all branded as haters, we hate the ENTIRE SYSTEM, and see NO POINT in cutting the nose to spite the face.
Fix ALL, or do nothing, it is time to stop wallowing in the middle.
