tolerance is one of those precious things that arose within the independent nations in the wake of a political order that they tolerated one another and then extend tolerance to their own citizens. we have to find her way out of where we are. the best way, i believe, to revisit the imperialist assumption that we have adopted ourselves, those are strong words and not immediately persuasive to everybody. but take a moment to think about them to say no, no, no. i have the answer. only germans have the answer. you just can't run the country the way they want to because we know how the polls are supposed to run it. that thinking means in italy a finance minister proposed by the democratic government can be deposed from brussels because the germans and better better have a better understanding of italy. it's easy to complain about the europeans but that thinking comes from america. you could say it's only on the left but is also with the conservatives in america and we need to find a way to overcome that and we can the traditions are healthy and strong anyway that's why i wrote the book. i

fascism was tribalism for one nation. so, nazi-ism was tribalism for one race. there is a thing in our brain that clicks on that says we want to be part of our group and see the other as a danger. the great thing about liberal democratic capitalism, about the market, is it helps us learn how to deal with strangers. we evolve for hundreds of thousands of years with some serious programming that says, do not trust strangers. there is a wonderful book by a guy from yale, paul bloom. where he surveys the research done about the programming that babies are inherited with. and don't worry, no babies were harmed in the conduct of those experiments. but babies are born with accents. french babies have a french accent. german babies heavy german accent. babies are born to bond very quickly with the appearance of their parents and then instinctively just trust people who sound different or look different. so when people say had to be taught to hate, they are completely wrong. what people need to be taught is not to hate. and because we are in the evolutionary environment
