Personally, I think arguing about fascism on Mudcat with some knob who thinks you're weird if you don't want to have a pint with a paki-basher is going to make bugger all difference to the lives of people on the receiving end of racist violence.

I also think all the armchair philosophical, oh-so-clever, post-modern debates about the tautology of "fascism" in 2010 are totally missing the point. Relect for one miserable moment, on what is happening to real victims of racism in the real world. Walk a mile in their shoes. Yes, yes, yes, you can smugly call someone a "fascist" for being resolutely anti-racist (because being "resolute" is suddenly a symptom of fascism for today's ultra-liberals, isn't it?). But at the end of the day, what the fuck is all that about? You scored a pissy little worthless point in a shitty "debate". Bully for you. Clap, clap, clap.
