Conservatism is a global plague of oppression and death. I hope Malaysians are one day able to cure their deadly infection.

  TFW you find out that Ian Miles Cheong is just an average Malaysian, no wonder why that guy is such a Nazi bootlicking asshole.

That's how things are in so many countries unfortunately. Many people in the west tend to lose sight of that. I live in Morocco and we are struggling to just change the status of premarital sex. In the law you can get jail if you are caught having sex with your gf if you are not married. This law is rarely applied but it remains as a looming threat. The issue is that many people are in favor of that law and think the state should punish those who have premarital sex. This is sadly the case with many progressive laws and ideas. The majority of people in these countries are supportive of these conservative laws. It's not just a top down thing from a government, which makes it much more complicated.
