When is a fascist not a fascist?

[Hosakawa Tito]

I foretold it in the first reply, lol.



Aw'some, so the people who revolted in France in 1789 against tyranny were fascists.

I know it can be a challenge, but try to stay on topic here. You are implying it is acceptable for those who are politically opposed to the BNP to use violence and the threat of violence to deny them the right to express their views. Do you feel the BNP has that same right to violently suppress the views of others?

[InsaneApache]

Thanks for that CA. It doesn't matter how many apologists you roll out though does it? The founder of fascism was a socialist.

You can dress it up like a christmas tree on the 24th december but that fact just wont go away will it?

Put it this way sunshine, he was hardly a tory, was he?

It is clear you have no interest in a serious argument, nor a leg to stand on.

Neo-Liberal economics hadn't been invented yet, so no, no he wasn't. Was he a Socialist? No. His actions prove that.

[Tribesman]

No he wasn't , the founder of fascism was someone who had rejected socialism.

There ya go. Violence or the threat of violence is a fascist tactic.

Jesus was a fascist then.

For a proper assault you need an assault rifle, not eggs.
It is however not nice to waste eggs like that while children in africa are hungry...

Why did the protesters only throw one egg?

...because one egg's un œuf!



Ba-boom-tish!!!

A pity moderators can't throw eggs :)

Warning points? Send it to I.P. adress 44.44.47.19.


Yes, another bad French yoke.

44.44.47.19 = cot-cot-cot-cot-cot, c'est un œuf.

No, you are not going to escape from explaining your statement: "There ya go. Violence or the threat of violence is a fascist tactic." I pointed out a random example that counters the validity of your statement. But I could point out a thousand other random examples from history where violence or the threat of violence was used in politics. Sure, you haven't read The Prince, do you? Are you implying Machiavelli was the ideologue of fascism? Try to realize your statement was false, and violence or threat of violence existed long before Fascism.

And if egg throwing is violence, pushing a cake in someone's face is attempted murder. I'm not saying it's a good thing, actually it's quite ridiculous.

And if egg throwing is violence, pushing a cake in someone's face is attempted murder.

Assault - a crime of violence against a person.
Violence - the expression of physical force against self or other.

Definitions from Wiki.

Egg throwing is, if not violence, completely unacceptable. Thing is though, it is violence. Pushing a cake into the face of an individual is also violence, but an egg is far more likely to cause physical harm.

Oh come on. Like you didn't applaud it when one of brown's ministers(name escapes me atm) got green sauce all over his face.

Throwing an egg is the same. Ie., not violence. It won't cause physical harm, it won't make anyone intimidated.

[Fragony]

intimidating it is though, it means you are on their list and that your life is in danger.

[HoreTore]

Nonsense.

His life is in danger? When have people like this ever killed someone?

[Fragony]

Nonsense.

kidding me? And it very much means just that.

[Evil_Maniac From Mars]

I didn't hear about it in the first place, but no, I wouldn't applaud it. Every democratically elected minister, MP, or MEP deserves a certain amount of respect, no matter how distasteful I find their views.

Do you really think I would defend the BNP over Labour?

The Sun's headline summed it up nicely: "Bad Egg Is Hit By Good Egg"

[Hosakawa Tito]

Ah, the double standard and obfuscation on the actual topic at hand in action. There is no debate here, only inane hairsplitting on the real definition of "is". Time for a beer and less trivial pursuits.

[Tribesman]

The protesters were rubbish . They should have thrown a curry at him after he had given his speech, after all curry is the British national dish
