Truth

Those who acknowledge, seek and find the truth are not mad but bound to succeed because their actions will be more in tune with reality. Yes life can be "maddeningly" incomprehensible but that's part of its challenge and beauty.
Societies were not given. We create them and mold them to suit our needs.
There are no West and East rights. Rights are universal regardless if you acknowledge them or not.
Keeping out anarchy and society's best interest was the argument used by nazis an communists. It's at best hypocritical and in reality criminal. There is no other interest than individual, private interest and cooperative action can only be based on combining these private interests. Society is nothing more than its members.

Idiots

Idiots are inevitable. They are part of us. Stupidity is part of human nature and will remain so in foreseeable future. I don't advocate compromise with criminals. Criminals are to be put away. Criminals can be Americans, Jews, Arabs, Puerto Ricans even Bulgarians that doesn't make them any different.
By cooperation I mean real cooperation between people genuinely set to help each other not from some imagined altruistic motives buy to promote their own self interest. People can achieve great things only in cooperation. Alone we are no better than monkeys.
I don't intend to abandon civilization because of a bunch of criminals whose actions will ultimately lead to their demise because we want let them have their way.
It's not "us" and "them" it what's right and what's wrong.
