But enough of this nonsense, I'm not going to continue discussing politics in this thread.
Time for hype

That's your idea of politics? I was wondering what the fuck you were talking about, sorry for not understanding that it was all derived from your amygdala.

The media is so controlled that it hurts http://security.blogs.cnn.com/2011/07/22/qa-why-norway/?hpt=hp_t1 Media corporations that people believe are serious are only an outlet for the government to spread lies and brainwash their people. It's just so sad and I can't believe many people are too quick to jump on conclusions and blame muslims this fast. |
Well, one group of extreme islamists did say they did it (they took that back later) and other groups have celebrated the attacks and expressed their full support, so there's a reason for people suspecting muslims.

There was no reason to do so at the time when that article was written. Everyone suspects muslims because the media tells you they are evil, and you swallow that without thinking for yourself.

In this day and age, isn't that the same thing? (ask rupert) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fascism "Fascists seek to purge forces, ideas, and systems deemed to be the cause of decadence and degeneration" Which side of the political spectrum does that fit? (Hint: It ain't the leftie socialists!) ... |
Actually, it does sound a lot like progressive ideology ... Or do you dispute that progressive individuals are highly critical of the (so-called) "Rich" and want to re-distribute their wealth (decadence), or even retain some level of support for eugenics as long you're aborting babies with genetic defects rather than killing adults with genetic defects (degeneration)?
This isn't to say that Fascism is the same as Socialism but, as we were all taught in school, Fascism was envisioned as a "Third Way" and has some elements of Socialism and Capitalism in its ideology. Furthermore, many founders of modern progressive thought were actually inspired (to a certain extent) by Fascist ideology as implemented in Italy and Germany prior to seeing the inevitable outcome.

This is so sad I can't believe this has happened at all. My utmost and sincere condolences go out to my fellow countrymen who lost their loved ones today. |
I was delivering newspapers when they revealed that atleast 80 people had been killed. I had to stop the car and wait for a confirmation since I couldn't believe I heard it right. I thought the rumour saying 30 people had been killed sounded extreme but 80? The radioguy had to confirm the number again and again as if he couldn't believe it himself. This is a sad day indeed, and what's worse is that some islamists are celebrating it...how people can be so messed up is beyond me.

What islamists are celebrating?
I mean, after 9/11 CNN showed footage of some islamists celebrating the acts, when it was later revealed that was footage from the 80's where those guys were celebrating the fall of the USSR which were USA ENEMIES.
I cannot believe you believe what the media tells you without even questioning it. You are part of the problem.

Being that H.G. Wells is credited with being the father of progressive ideology, and also looked upon facism very favourably, I would say that he is probably the best example.
