    And I have provided a link where the British government admits that it is.

    No. But I'm not snipe hunting with you today. Have fun snipe chasing...

    It's like playing chess with a pigeon. You might kick the pigeon's ass, but it's just going to knock the pieces over, shiite all over the board and claim victory anyway.

    Or they just understand history and that the Nazis used fascists ideology they did not redistribute wealth but centralised it in corporate cartels. Not to mention nationalism, racism and very socially conservative. Do you think the GDR was a democracy?

    You're obviously not an American so let me help you with the American right/left political spectrum as it's not 1789 anymore, and it isn't the French Revolution. American politics is linear. The Nolan dual axis of attempting to place fascism as right of center because of where those supporting gov't sat in the 1789 French Parliment is nonsense, and was debunked shortly after it's creation in 1969.

    Both anarchisms are theoretical far right ideology of no gov't in which everything is privately owned in libertarian anarchism and all transactions are conducted thru private treaty. Communist anarchism are all things are commonly owned like a hippy commune. Moving further left is libertarianism. A little further left is conservatism that fills the void from libertarianism to center-left. Every other "ism" is left of center.

    And, yes, Neo-Nazis in America are a left of center body politic as witnessed by their leadership. You lose, but thanx for playing: Please come again. :)

    My family's been here since 1741. I'm a registered member of the Sons of the American Revolution. I am intimately familiar with American history and the political spectrum, and you don't get to revise it to suit your twisted ideology. I don't accept your big lie, no matter how many times you repeat it. I'll give you this, though - your posts would do your namesake proud, and are just a believable as he was... :roll:

    Thanks for playing, but you lose.

    Cheer up! It's not like it was the Mother of all Debates! :roflol:

    Up to the sixties the US had a questionnaire for all who sought entry, by draft or enlistment. The only question I remember was have you ever been a member of the John Birch Society. I wondered what the hell is the John Birch Society. I think you couldn't be a member of the Communist Party either.

    Interesting. Nazi Germany had a similar list to identify Jewish people and/or those that did not conform to the Nazi Party's standards. So, is this the equivalent of "pre-heating" the ovens?

    Gee....that is what the Nazi's said as well (or similar). Painting those people they wanted to oppress as being "the enemy bent of evil deeds" was a very common practice.

    Tracking the ones stockpiling weapons and preaching about overthrowing the government is hardly evil. What do you think George Washington would have done to such people? Should we do any different today?

    What were the three crimes the Founding Fathers actually listed by name in the Constitution?

    Having weapons or spreading rhetoric is worthless without the numbers to carry anything out. People like to paint the narrative that "right wing extremists" activity is increasing. It is not increasing, it is just getting more exposure....and ironically so, because it is those that claim they are adamantly against the "right wing extremists" that is providing the exposure. We hear about them in the news more and more "terrorist activities" are attributed to them, not because their numbers are growing, but because of the crusade to oppress them and force conformity. I think the extremists on both sides are pretty much the scum of the earth, but I have been around long enough that fighting extremists with just another brand of extremism, seldom works out well.

    Tell that to the victims of Oklahoma City or 9/11. 21 people killed 3,145. Those 19 monsters on 9/11 changed our country irrevocably.

    You're wrong.

    And research has shown that there is a difference in how the brains of conservatives work as opposed to democrats

    Imagine another 19 monsters. Only, this time, their mission is to set of accidents at every refinery they could in Texas City. Or how about blowing up a LNG ship in the Houston Ship Channel, or Port of New Orleans, or even the Panama Canal?

    You're wrong. Small groups, if they are willing to die for it, can wreak untold damage, and change us forever.

    Should we take any comfort from the appearance that the XRW seems to be far less efficient than the radical muslims?

    The linked article notes that "In total, right-wing extremism is a multi-spectrum threat..."

    The neo-nazis that endorsed and hail Trump as their "Glorious Leader!" and "God Emperor!", Cesar "False Flag" Sayoc who lived in a crackpot TrumpMobile and sent mail bombs to normal Americans, Robert Chain who threatened to shoot employees of newspapers critical of Trump, and the mass killer of worshippers in Christchurch who proclaimed Trump his “symbol of renewed white identity and purpose" do differ in various respects.

    This same list can be altered to make left-wingers look like extremist.
