12. Reactionary right hatred of "furiners" extends to anyone with an accent.

They tout desire for a pure 'white European" nation, but in reality, they reject anyone with an accent. When (if) they noticed that most of Russian is in Asia, they'd freak.

I will never forget a woman interviewed about bilingual education who said "They should have to learn to speak the language of Jesus Christ?" (Or "Why can't they learn to speak the language of Jesus Christ?" ) This epitomizes the level of understanding of the world found among those who promote or endorse the dogma of the reactionary right.

I say they should colonize the Antarctic. It's nice and white.
