Sadistic teachers of old were fond of it – the furrowed brow and fraudulent look of regret as they caned you “for your own good” – and the history of xenophobia is rich with creeps who dolled up their barbarism as a humane sympathy for the very people they sought to oppress.
Los profesores sádicos del pasado amaban eso – las cejas fruncidas y un falso aire de tristeza cuando le golpeaban con una vara "para su bien" – y la historia de la xenofobia rebosa de malvados que maquillan su barbarie en compasión por aquellos que buscan oprimir.
