NoDot No, no...you see, I quoted George Orwell, the writer of "1984"... And, as everyone knows, George Orwell was Adolf Hitler in disguise...who wrote this "Nazi propoganda phamphlet" in 1948, after he was already dead, as a "sequel" to "Mein Kampf"... Oh, sorry...I can't keep the sarcasm going any longer..."1984" is perhaps one of the strongest statements AGAINST fascism ever penned in the English language (Churchill's speeches excluded)... breastle screen for HLA Adventure Need help designing one 965 You don't have to explain it to me. I actually know this stuff. I'm just pointing out... You could not get a more absurd claim: Apparently, I'm a "touchie feelie Nazi"...who quotes Orwell, as a means to promote fascism "subliminally"... Evidence? Why I drew an ASCII picture of a castle for Paul's computer game to help him out! What more evidence could you need? Indeed, that "1984" is "dangerous"...best you collect that book and other books, throw them on a bonfire and burn that "evil" away... You know, just like Hitler's book bonfires at the Nurenberg rallies...where Hitler used "censorship" of the most drastic kind - burning books with the "wrong ideology", liquidateing those of opposing political opinions, etc. - in order to tighten the iron grip of his fascism...yes, indeed, Hitler knew the "danger" in "free speech", which is exactly why it was NOT permitted in his "Third Reich"... Here, I hand you the book...burn it or read it...it's up to you... But which do you really believe is the more "dangerous"? Burn it and breed ignorance...only the "one true voice" remaining after the "purge of all knowledge deemed wrong by the one true leader" may ever be heard ever again...history is rewritten as the victors wish it to read, irrespective of the truth... Read it and promote education...all opinions are voiced and each is buttessed on its merits...everyone has a voice...it is a democratic forum...buttertions are put to "fair trail" on the evidence for and against... Is it more "dangerous" to have self-appointing "censors" create "taboos" that limit one's thoughts? To control society by the expert use of "silence"... Or, should a neo-Nazi appear, they are instantly shown to be completely wrong...for example, analysis of the Human Genome - looking directly at the genes themselves ("straight from the horse's mouth", so to speak) - has categorically shown that there is more average variation inside a supposed "race" than there is between them... breastle screen for HLA Adventure Need help designing one 968 JohnnyMrNinja to a particular standard (actually, two standards, but the first version of ASCII is mostly forgotten by now) published by the American Standards buttociation. The ASCII standard uses only... Hence, any suggestion of "genetic purity" and such is a KNOWN nonsense... The only real way that such "myths" could ever gain a foothold and survive is through SILENCE BREEDING IGNORANCE by making any discussion of "genetic similarity" a "taboo"...so, these clear demonstrations that neo-Nazi "myth" has no factual basis whatsoever are "silenced"...leading to the possibility that many remain ignorant of these facts and can, thus, be persuaded to believe the neo-Nazi "myths" through the IGNORANCE that the "silence" breeds... What sounds the more "dangerous" to you? Beth :
