You can say I've become somewhat of a celebrity, but... [He shakes his head a little.] I can't say I've made many more friends through it.
[Newt pours some milk into his cup before finally sipping his tea.] If only. My brother snores. [He's mostly joking this time. There has been a lot on his mind.] The events of that dream haven't been the only things on my mind. [Hiccup probably recalls the other being rather tired when he was collecting the pygmy jacks. Of course, being injured hadn't helped. If only that were the only reason why.]
When people see themselves as better than others. When they feel their blood puts them above others in anyway. It makes things...difficult. [Newt's expression becomes more distant. More troubled.] It is likely that witches there believe it to be their birthright, and it is a mindset that doesn't just exist there. It is more subtle here, but it isn't to say that it doesn't exist.
It is not a mindset that can be swayed easily. [It reminds him much of how pureblood wizards and witches feel back home. How they are upset that it is them who have to hide away. That they are above muggles and that they feel that it is unfair that they must hide. That what was happening in Dorchacht was very much what Grindelwald wanted. A life where they reigned above muggles.
Newt hasn't realized his tea cup shaking in his hands.]
