381. No one should belittle anyone

It does not matter ones nationality, politics, religion, or anything.

And just because someone does not live under said policy does not mean that they don't have family or friends who do, and that they too may have a vested interest in seeing the policy succeed or fail.

While they may not live under the policy themselves does not mean they might not have something meaninful to add to the discussion. Ultimately, the more information we can get, confirm, and analyze the better the conclusion we can make.

I have never lived in or around Germany, but If I saw someone making sexist and disparaging remarks about their Prime minister that I knew were not true (though I know next to nothing about her) I would speak up. Wouldn't you?

This is doubly true for someone who I feel is helping people.

If this was solely about civility, then I apologize and agree. We should all treat each other as we would want to be treated. But again, no reason to limit that to foreigners, it holds true for everyone. For those born here and abroad, for those who agree and disagree.

That said, and again I apologize if this was SOLELY about civility, the way you focus in on those who criticizing others for criticizing the president really makes it look like you are trying to silence only one specific group while allowing others who agree with you to have a free pass.
