To be honest I think they are just sick of the identity politics driven society we now live in; which demonizes them and paints them as the sole cause of all these other social groups problems. I know that is the case with me...Lancasterclaret wrote:Potential book titles
Sorry Rowls, I agree that you should treat different races the same, but the general trend of white people who moan (based on my feed on twitter) is that they are not too fond of black, yellow and brown people not knowing their place.
Are you suggesting there's no such thing as a white supremacist / nationalist, or that we shouldn't point them out when we notice them?ClaretMoffitt wrote:Oh I know, its already in it's early phase, it just needs to go mainstream among it's target audience now. These phrases tend to start out life with political public figures with big social media followings, then get abused by the press, then picked up by politicians and lastly go mainstream with a specific audience. The white supremacist/nationalist slur is currently still in between the public figure/media phase. Give it 6 months or so.

But I'm sure all those lovely conservative folk will happily smile and giggle about that lovely friend of theirs Mr Hitler. Oh, and that nice chap Mussolini. And that wee bundle of joy Franco. Or maybe 'the Right' could refer to all sorts of people and ideologies, which hugely differ, such as right-leaning liberalism, and conservativism, as well as- unfortunately- fascism.RingoMcCartney wrote:Jeremy Corbyn is a communist.

Thanks for reminding me of the following:Greenmile
"...What's wrong with calling out fascism / white supremacy / racism when we see it?..."
The 13th Annual Israeli Apartheid Week will take place all around the world between March – April 2017.
Israeli Apartheid Week (IAW) is an international series of events that seeks to raise awareness of Israel’s settler-colonial project and apartheid system over the Palestinian people and to build support for the growing Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement.
Inspired by the popular resistance across historic Palestine and struggles worldwide, IAW 2016 included a wide range of events, from lectures, film screenings, cultural performances, BDS actions, to postering in metro stations, setting up apartheid walls on campuses, and many more. These actions took place in more than 225 cities across the world.
The coming year (2017) will mark 100 years of Palestinian resistance against settler colonialism, since the inception of the Balfour Declaration. IAW will be an opportunity to reflect on this resistance and further advance BDS campaigns for the continued growth and impact of the movement. Despite all the legislative attacks on BDS internationally, IAW and the BDS movement continue to build linkages and solidarity with other struggles to achieve freedom, justice, and equality.

I'm being flippant and I really shouldn't.
You're doing a great job turtle, you really are.
I'd like to publicly thank you for keeping fascism at bay.
Whilst the rest of us are sleeping away at night, you're wide-eyed with constant vigilance and trawling the corridors of the internet to keep fascism from our doors.
When the rest of the world carelessly hops into bed as though it's the end of a regular, normal day you're checking under the bed and in the wardrobe for fascism.
When a fawning report on Donald Trump appears on the BBC, we lesser souls run and hide and can barely watch from behind the sofa. But you -YOU!- have the strength and courage to point your finger and call him a fascist and to post it on the internet too.
I'm sorry for mocking you.
You're brave beyond words and without your constant vigilance one knows where we'd be? Perhaps we'd have a functioning opposition leader?
Who knows?- Nobody really.
But what we do know is that it's thanks to you -yes YOU!- that we've managed to keep fascism from our shores all these years.
Keep up the good work, you are not at all under-appreciated.
Thank you

Will Operation Barbarosa be successfully brought forward or will there be time for one last Oom-pah band and a slap of Eva Braun's bottom at the Berghof?
All will be revealed in .... 1930s Hitler Versus 1940s Hitler!

dermotdermot wrote:Corbyn does not embrace democracy. He is a prime example of a man so entrenched in his extreme left wing views that he thinks everyone in his party should tow the line and think the same as him. Given the power to lead his party, who were, in turn, trying to act in a democratic fashion when they foolishly nominated him to run for leader, he has now turned into a fascist, a person who will go to any length to impose his will on others. Possibly the worst example of inverted socialism.
Eighty per cent of his parliamentary colleagues want him gone but that doesn't matter to him. He does what he wants and pays no heed to others in his party, clinging to the belief that he was democratically elected by the paid up 'members' of his party. A complete and utter stitch-up job.
He didn't follow the party line over the referendum, possibly creating an adverse effect on the outcome. He then pretended to embrace democracy by whipping his MP's into voting along with the government to implement a 'hard brexit' as this is what, he said, 'the people' had voted for. For me this just doesn't tally. He has spent his entire elected life voting against not just the opposition but just about everything that his own party put forward and stood for when in government. He probably even voted against the Good Friday agreement which successfully halted the war in Northern Ireland. It probably went against his support for the IRA and a united Ireland.
All this, incidentally, while drawing a hefty wage as a 'Labour' MP, even heftier now that he's the leader. He is, as well as being a fascist, a complete and utter phony, unprincipled and just plain horrible.He has caused irreparable damage to the Labour Party and I, for one, will be so glad when he falls with one almighty bang.
Imploding Turtle wrote:I've read just read that post and i've come to two conclusions. 1) you don't know what fascism is, and 2) your thinking - if we can call it that - is all over the place.
You criticising him for not embracing democracy while also criticising him for not siding with the majority of his MPs by quitting, over the majority of Labour members who have twice elected him leader.
When he does demonstrate that he obeys democratic decisions in a manner you like you criticise him for it by saying he's only "pretending".
You criticised him for ruling with an iron fist and demanding absolute loyalty to his views while also criticising him for not towing the party line over Brexit.
You've criticised him for a three-line whip to get his MPs to vote for Brexit to proceed (wait, i thought he was "pretending"?) as if that makes him a fascist yet conveniently forget, or perhaps you're just ignorant to, the fact that Cameron used a three-line whip to vote down an EU referendum in 2011, and that whipped votes are hardly a new thing.
You've even criticised him for "probably" voting against the Good Friday Agreement with absolutely no evidence to support it.
If you think that post 62 of that thread will make people "see the light" you're utterly, and desperately, delusional.
There are actually good arguments to be made against Corbyn's leadership, but your diarrhoea of a forum post doesn't get close to any of them.

He was correct of course.
I don't think he likes Israel as a state and how they have operated, and I'm on the same page as him.
To condemn Israel, isn't to condemn every Jew on the planet.
Not really disgusting.dermotdermot wrote:That was a disgusting comparison. One which even prompted the loyal Emily Thornberry to publicly apologise to the Israeli embassy.
The irony in this context of her finding it extremely disturbing that an Israeli official can't handle views on the Middle East, is pants wetting.The exposure of the Israeli embassy official, Shai Masot, discussing how to bring down or discredit a government minister and other MPs because of their views on the Middle East is extremely disturbing.
Improper interference in our democratic politics by other states is unacceptable whichever country is involved.
This is a national security issue and the Foreign and Commonwealth Office should immediately launch an inquiry into the extent of improper influence, and I shall be writing to Boris Johnson to that effect.
