what does it mean to live in as liberal society, if not to uphold the law, as established by the liberal class?

there's nothing "liberal" about turning a blind eye to safety standards, about jettisoning reasonable lease requirements or about ignoring human rights rulings under some kind of argument of cultural relativism.

for, these are the things that define a liberal society, in the first place.

and, if you take them away, we will not have a liberal society any more - we will have the authoritarian, hierarchical and unequal society that our laws were designed to prevent.

"but, my culture..." is not an argument against the application of the rules of liberalism -  it's what these rules exist to prevent in the first place.

health & safety laws exist for good reasons, and need to be enforced.

& it is imperative that we uphold the human rights code.

these are the reasons we have checks on immigration. and, it is when these things start failing that the society begins to collapse.

but, i'm starting to feel like a greek philosopher arguing against the spread of christianity. it is clear that this is not reversible, and that my best option is indeed migration - or, as it may be, escape.
