The fact that both McCarthyism and segregation are routinely touted in contemporary discourse is further evidence that political discussion is largely pointless as a long-term strategy. We've been having the same arguments since the French Revolution at the very least.

We’ve been having an evolutionary argument and gradually including more and more vulnerable groups. It would take some kind of ego (and probably a bit of family wealth) to think we hadn’t made any progress since “The Reign of Terror”.

Also I think it’s bizarre that you don’t see the value in mixing current political discourse with some historical context. Sounds like something a fascist would say.
