It hasn't just been Germany - walls have been going up all over Europe and, in my opinion, the symbolism of this development is terrifying while at the same time is now normal.
We are watching our humanity eroded
Absolutely. I've been in Poland, Greece and the UK in the last few months and it's clearly visible that peoples attitudes and beliefs are shifting back to the right. The age of 'ME' is well and truly here. The thing that most concerns me is how far right will things go?
For example, I saw with my own eyes, swastika's spray painted on walls in Krakow, which is ironic considering Auschwitz was located there. I've seen skinhead marches in Lancashire recently and I spoke to a Greek hotel owner about the refugee crisis and he didn't want to know. This is all stuff I have personally experienced.
Add to that the stuff on tv, from Hungary to the UK. Immigrants being turned away, sheltered houses for Romanians being burned down, migrant camps being torched by the Police, a general feeling of 'Fuck'em, let them go back where they came from'
God help any of you if you ever lose your job/house/family and have to depend on your respective Governments.... it's quite clear if you are disabled/infirm/mentally ill, the message is that you must fend for yourself, as our World leaders don't give a fuck about you.
Look at the Tories in the UK, cutting benefits and services and almost revelling in it. And people over there seem surprised! You reap what you sow.
