itsall I do have genuine concerns about the mentality that will exist in an independent Scotland, yes. Not from anyone on this thread. But the aggressive anti-English rhetoric I have seen from a number of the yes voters has been desperately unpleasant. I have seen "f off back to England more than once on Facebook. I am utterly ashamed.
Where would that end? My English friend tonight told me that racist insults to her have increased in the last few months. She feels less welcome here.
If the yes vote goes through, I have grave concerns about the type of place Scotland will become.
What led to Nazi Germany was a combination of deep post war recession and a clever sociopath championing nationalism to the masses and riches for all.
Of course I would not be so offensive to argue Scotland would turn into Nazi Germany. But with all this philosophical championing of national idealism, I think we have to remember what it often means.
