Here's an odd feature about how human brains work.
This Englishman is basically the same as a Jew being named Adolf. The only difference between Hitler and William the Conqueror was that William 1st won the war and Hitler lost it.
Roll forward 100 years and English people like the Shakespeares are naming their sons after the man who committed genocide killing 10% of them and who started the subjugation of the English people under the system we still suffer under. When people accept a Sir/Dame they are normalising genocide and ethnic oppression.
Now what is wrong with the human brain that it will bow to vicious authority? I guess it is pragmatism that we have to live so we do the best we can, which means accepting oppression if that is the only item of the menu... and the weird bit being so happy about it we name our sons after it.
Doesn't this throw a complete spanner in modern politics. No one cares if we are invaded and subjugated to harsh racism and genocide we will survive and be happy about it regardless. Turn that around however: what are people actually fighting for?
So our armies shouldn't be squeamish: just rape and destroy in pursuit of total dominance, but in return don't worry if it happens to you and yours. Really?
