How Democracy Became the Enemy | New York Times | Roger Cohen. April 7-8

And annoy #MeToo
Letter to New York Times
What's with Roger Cohen? It's possible to be against unlimited immigration without being a Viktor Orbanite. 
Indeed three quarters of European residents are reliably against unfettered immigration. Yet they are mocked by Cohen as nativist "racial and religious purists".
But why should this majority be forced to enable the social problems that Islamic immigration has brought elsewhere to Europe. Should this majority do so because "kale-eating western liberals racked by colonial or war guilt" (as Cohen straw-mans them for Orban) try to shame them to do so?
I think not. 
Europe is not the kale-eaters to give away.
