Subject: RE: Folk Against Fascism
Well, to be honest, Bruce, I expected you to be able to come up with some ideas or information on the subject. All you seem to be able to do, is say the same thing over and over again - be it "fuck" or "shag," it has very little intellectual content.

I was brought up to believe that name-calling was what thugs did when they weren't smart enough to defend their point of view.

Don't get me wrong - I disapprove of the BNP every bit as strongly as you do. But if all we do to oppose the BNP and other Nazi movments is to walk around like baboons and say, "Fuck dis shit," then our argument lacks credibility. In fact, we sound just like the baboons on the other side.

If our goal is to neutralize the neo-Nazis, then we have to be a class act. We won't beat them by playing the game by their rules.
