re: #332 Jimmah

Ooh yeah cos all these neo-nazi groups and right wing bomb nuts that have been popping up lately are obviously motivated by their great political affinity with Barack Obama///

Ethnic nationalism= defining a country according to one race/ethnic identity and wanting everyone else chucked out of the country. Let’s see if any of your examples fit the bill:

NAACP - civil rights movement.

Islam - (WTF?) is neither a race NOR a country, NOR is it left wing, unless ultra conservative religiosity is to be made a defining characteristic of the left as well!

La Raza - latino civil rights/advocacy group.

all those groups espouse a focus that THEIR group is special, elevated above all others
nothing more, nothing less
that is pretty racist to me
and sure “Islam” is not a race
but how fucking often HAVE THEY thrown down the race card

they align themselves with the left wing
they use the same tactics
they want the same control

sure, so do the neo-nazis
lump them all together
is all I am saying

take the American Republican Party as “the right wing”
and look at what they say on the RNC website

Republican Principles

I BELIEVE the strength of our nation lies with the individual and that each person’s dignity, freedom, ability and responsibility must be honored.

I BELIEVE in equal rights, equal justice and equal opportunity for all, regardless of race, creed, sex, age or disability.

I BELIEVE free enterprise and encouraging individual initiative have brought this nation opportunity, economic growth and prosperity.

I BELIEVE government must practice fiscal responsibility and allow individuals to keep more of the money they earn.

I BELIEVE the proper role of government is to provide for the people only those critical functions that cannot be performed by individuals or private organizations, and that the best government is that which governs least.

you think ANY of those groups aspire to these ?
