I put to you the claim that Islamic nations are 10x more tolerant than western nations.
Where will politeness and respect get me in a western country? Probably beaten, robbed, and over-taxed. In an Islamic country, politeness and respect will get me anything, even illegal things like whiskey and gay blowjobs.
Aussies are such tattletale bootlickers I can't even get tax free smokes here without my co-workers crying blue murder.
