No, it's not brainwashing. Young people just think that everyone wants to be saved, regardless to the consequences to those immediately around you.
Someone brings up extremists in immigrants argument; they somehow twist it around by saying that extremists just had a bad environment (so?), it's their (the young person's) fault, extremists aren't that bad (that one truly disgusts me, having interacted with extremists on-line.)
They're also extremely impressionable at that age and seem to be discomforted by independent thought; they prefer a nanny state.
We've got rid of traditional thinking in terms of values (which I find good), but it's just been replaced my this new kind of extremism; this new kind of extremism has just taken up its place. In light of realising mistakes in history, we've somehow decided to take the burden for the rest of the world. Young people want to shoulder the burden and guilt to which they're entirely irrelevant and which they don't have the right to possess.
Those chucking homosexuals off buildings should burden the guilt; not us for them.
And I'm not actually kidding when I say there are young people who reduce extremists to delinquents and all that. There are many like this, cemented in their views, and it frightens me. It frightens me because the extremists I've met on-line frighten me, and they are apologetic to them and want to invite them into our home (UK) to make it right.
