Spot on, Fionn. / Awww now, Guest. I still say (granted, a bit quietly) C'mon the Shinners, for their democratically-won gains; and "conservative Catholic nationalism", OK, close enough. But "Blueshirt **fascism**"? Re *today's* FG (or, what's left of it after the last elections)? And, that awful national disaster the Celtic Tiger, fascism's decendant?? Agreeing to disagree, I disagree. Capitalism may not be a good thing but it is hardly an exclusive attribute of fascism. Nor do Rightists have any monopoly on public (and private) corruption. Shall we smite all SFers as damned atheistic Red hooligan terrorists and/or their descendants? Let us de-escalate the rhetoric.
