Fascism Sucks

BBC NEWS | Politics | Protests ahead of BNP appearance

Anti-fascist protesters broke into BBC Television centre ahead of British National Party leader Nick Griffin's appearance on Question Time.

Fascism sucks because Fascists would seek to impose their will on the public, without consultation, without representation, without democracy. They would use force and violence to subdue anyone that disagrees with them. They would, for example, do something like sending a mob to a TV station where a controversial left-wing socialist was about to speak.

Difference?

I have literally seen people on tv (in those god-awful vox-pops) being questioned whether they think the BNP should be allowed on Question Time, and one man said "No, because I don't agree with them". WHAT THE FUCK!? I don't agree with the Tories, I rarely agree with any mainstream politican, but I don't think they should be BANNED from television.

I hate the BNP as much as anyone else in posession of a brain, but angry and violent protests are exactly what Nick Griffin wants to happen so he can paint the left as violent thugs, when ironically it is generally the BNP who are violent thugs, and the left nice peaceful sensible people! Or so I would like to think.
