How about stop letting certain groups have special treatment?

There is zero justification for going into some raging fit if someone burns a book. Yet all these left leaning European countries have tried to turn a blind eye or downplay every time one of these groups have assaulted or threatened someone.

Assimilate to a modern, 1st world culture, or go back to the stone age bullshit where you came from. You left whatever hellhole you came from because those countries are backwards-thinking conservative theocracies. Don't you dare come to these western countries and try to impose your backwards thinking onto the native folks already there. You Assimilate to their culture, they aren't going to walk on eggshells to appease your archaic religious nonsense. Fuck religion.

Which countries do you mean? And could you explain how they ignored people assaulting other people?

I fail to see why this is a thing, or why you mention it's somehow a "left" thing.

The reason it's more significant now is that Turkey is using the book burning as an excuse to withhold approving NATO membership. After that it became news, before that it wasn't news. Meaning, no need to make up stuff about you making up things about "left leaning".

There has been a massive influx of Muslims into Europe over the last decade or so due to troubles in the Middle East. The Left has naively been welcoming them en masse not realizing that so many of these people have zero interest in assimilating into these new countries and instead want to bring with them the extremist conservative values they had back home. This has been happening all across Europe from Germany to the UK to France to Sweden. These people have been known to try pushing their ass backwards views on locals and the locals not really being able to do anything about it.
