For some strange reason a thread centered on a discussion of the lyrics of a song got relegated to the BS section....go figure.

It went the same place you'd expect a discussion of the lyrics of the Horst Wessel Song to go. Nothing very strange about it.

I don't think Harper has bothered telling us whether he's a fascist or not. I know what conclusion I'd draw from that.

So songs that fail the PC sniff test get booted downstairs...I get it now.

Harper is not a facist, he takes exception to the religion of islam, some of his criticisms are justified, however his mistake is to assume that all muslims interpret the koran in the same way ,they do not. it is a as mistaken an assumption as to assume that all christians interpret the bible in the same way.
however his objections to islam are not racial ones he is objecting to the religion, so to suggest he is a fascist is incorrect.

I reviewed this moderator action, and I guess I can't agree with the moving of the thread to the non-music section. The thread discussion has some political aspects that could be classified "BS," but the thread is certainly a discussion of the songs of Roy Harper.
