Don't leave Mister, we're just having a little fun. You gotta laugh in life because it's too short. Cheers, Rennick
Obviously the choice is yours to get your panties in a wad or not. The concept is pretty simple, wear your religious garb and deal with the consequences of someone thinking you are a muslim on occasion or try harder to blend in thus making yourselves smaller targets. btw: You don't come here dress funny then demand my respect because of it, once again that makes you sound like a muslim. I know lucrum didn't put it in a tactful manner but quite frankly if your religion insists you make targets of yourselves then by all means knock yourselves out. The choice is yours, but don't blame me for the consequences of YOUR actions .
For intelligent or respectful discussions, there are other forums on the net. This here is closer to real life, where you also can't always avoid encountering stupidity and racism.
Do you just make this shit up as you go along? Neo-Nazis are Right Wing extremists. Don't take my word for it, look it up and educate yourself, rather than fabricate a personal world view from whole cloth. How do you come up with this shit?
That is patently false. Let me ask you something Brass. Those issues I listed above. Do you disagree with that? The fact is, in Europe right and left wing has a different connotation then it does here. Just as the conservative party in Britain would be very liberal here. Almost nothing in the nazi party platform aligns itself with the right wing in the "united states". You can label people any name you want. I can call you a neo-con. Does it make it so? If you tell me you are against preemptive war, can I still call you a neo-con? My case in point was the fact that the nazi groups in the US aligned themselves with OWS, not with the right. Do you honestly think the right wing in this country is part of the OWS group? Do you honestly believe that? You do know that NAZI stands for National Socialist German Workers' Party right? LOL.
When asked in an interview whether he and the Nazis were "bourgeois right-wing" as alleged by their opponents, Hitler responded that Nazism was not exclusively for any class, and indicated that it favoured neither the left nor the right, but preserved "pure" elements from both "camps", stating: "From the camp of bourgeois tradition, it takes national resolve, and from the materialism of the Marxist dogma, living, creative Socialism".[19] The term Nazi derives from the first two syllables of Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei (NSDAP, Nazi Party).[20] The German term Nazi parallels the term Sozi (pronounced /zoːtsi/), an abbreviation of Sozialdemokratische Partei Deutschlands (Social Democratic Party of Germany).[21][22] The term Nazi was originally used by southern German opponents of the NSDAP, and may have been influenced by the Bavarian term Nazi, which was a familiar form of the name Ignatz, which was used colloquially to mean a "clumsy or awkward person". The earlier term Inter-Nazi, which was a German abbreviation of Internationale, may have also contributed to the adoption of the term.[23] Members of the NSDAP referred to themselves as Nationalsozialisten (National Socialists), rarely as Nazis. In 1933, when Adolf Hitler assumed power of the German government, usage of the term Nazi diminished in Germany, although Austrian anti-Nazis continued to use the term as an insult.[22] Many Neo-Nazis still refer to themselves as National Socialists. According to Joseph Goebbels in an official explanation of Nazism, the synthesis of the words nationalism and socialism was to "counter the Internationalism of Marxism with the nationalism of a German Socialism". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazi_Party
Maverick74, to borrow from Daniel Patrick Moynihan, you are entitled to your own opinion, but not to your own facts. You are exhibiting lunacy here. Neo-Nazis are extreme Right Wingers. Done. Again, don't take my word for it, educate yourself. And by "educate, I don't mean "delude," which includes referring to articles with "multiple issues." Seriously, you've morphed into a political loon.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_Democratic_Party_of_Germany And here is that social democratic party of Germany. The SPD is a full member party of the Party of European Socialists and the Socialist International. It is Germany's oldest political party, established in 1875, in the German Parliament. It was also one of the first Marxist-influenced parties in the world. Eat your heart out Alex P. Keaton.
