re: #84 EndlessBob

My only beef is with the sloppy use of the word “fascist,” which in this case seems to mean “people whose politics I despise.”

There is nothing “sloppy” about the use of the word “fascist,” and it does not mean simply “people whose politics I despise.”

The groups they’re enabling, Vlaams Belang, Pro-Köln, and others, are absolutely fascists. In the case of Vlaams Belang, their founders had ties to ex-Nazis. You know, from the Third Reich? And in the case of Pro-Köln, they have ties to outright neo-Nazis who dress up as little Hitler clones, and sell Hitler Youth recordings on their websites.

If you don’t know the background of these groups, it might be wise to do a little research before revealing your ignorance with a comment like that.
