Totalitarianism is absolutely accpetable - if it is on behalf of the left revolution, the Gutmenschentum, the eco-surrogate religion, and so on. Some of the worst verbal excesses and demands for dictatorial supression of people with unwanted vierws, I hear coming from the lips of - not the conservative (if we still have some of them in Germany), but the left and the Green. On behalf of their ideologic goals, every form of dictatorship and supression seems to be acceptable.

But aren't you advocating the same thing, albeit at the community as opposed to national level? There is no end to the number of things that you have talked about regulating in the past, and in this thread in particular you have even discussed regulating repoduction, dealing with the 'aging problem', which you left ominously ambiguous, and 'getting rid of the exceeding population'. What you have said is that you want to do away with this (alleged) totalitarianism. What you replace it with is your own brand; a real totalitarianism, but one that suits
you.
And all this because you don't like the idea of gay marraige.
