Appeasement: when has it ever worked?

Okay, so the British are caving in (again) to the Islamofascists. What is it with people? Don't they learn from history? When has appeasement ever (ever!) worked ( Read more... )

But if we just give them the Rhineland, everything'll be okay, right?

The last 999 ro-beasts failed, but this one is sure to defeat Voltron!

Just one more demand and then we'll stop murdering your people.

Unbelievable.

But let me play "appeaser's advocate" for a minute - here in the US, down South we have the Confederate flag flying, and a part of some of the state flags (although that is changing here and there). Now it's not so simple to say the people who fly the Confederate flag all wish that the Constitution's 13th, 14th, and 15th amendments would all be repealed tomorrow, but it's an association (Confederacy with white supremacy) that could do with a little more severing.

How would we compare the relative distaste with the Confederate flag with the outrage a few Muslims have with the Union Jack?

Never! I appease you by leaving you alone and you're STILL around.
