    We've reached the point where decency and respect are portrayed as out-of-touch "elite" urban values compared to more "authentic" bigotry.

        Spot on Bernard, but not that surprising when you consider that being called a "do gooder" is used as an insult.

        If only it were just decency and respect. Unfortunately it's the hectoring and politicised virtue-signalling people dislike.
