The fascists are finding their voice again. 38175 (local edition) 08:37 - Jan 30 with 35913 views | monytowbray | https://www.instagram.com/p/B76d5hQgPnu/ Friend found this sticker on a lamp post in town yesterday and rightly ripped it down. Apparently some others saying “It’s okay to be white” have been spotted too. I’m sure this has nothing to do with the fact Brexit is coming up and we’ve just voted in a PM who has a history of unapologetic racist and homophobic comments :S |  |

The fascists are finding their voice again. 38175 (local edition) on 09:08 - Jan 30 by monytowbray | This is pretty low even by your standards mate. What makes transphobia less of an issue than anti-semitism then? |
Where did I say one form of bigotry was less of an issue than another? I condemned the transphobia as nasty and bigoted. I asked if it was fascism and gave an example of what I believe is real fascism in the U.K. in 2020. |  |

The fascists are finding their voice again. 38175 (local edition) on 09:05 - Jan 30 by monytowbray | Do you understand what fascism is? |
Here's a little something that amuses me about fascism. The term originated in Italy through the idea of strength through unity. The idea being that a single twig is weak but that a bundle of them is strong. The Italian term for such a bundle is fascina, hence fascist and fascism. The equivalent English word is faggot. |  |

I don't personally get all the stuff about 'identifying' as something different - almost comes across as a recent 'fad' if you ask me. However, who the hell cares enough to create, print and spend time sticking stickers onto stuff?! |  | |  |

Fair enough, the post just seemed a bit weird at first but I can take what you say at face value. |  |

The fascists are finding their voice again. 38175 (local edition) on 09:07 - Jan 30 by GlasgowBlue | Is it fascism? It’s nasty and bigoted for sure. This is definitely fascism in 2020. |
is it ? as that strikes me more like some 'nutter' who is most likely a social inadequate whereas any threat from fascism actually comes from extrememely wealthy backers funding those who politically seek to distort the truth, shut down oppositio voices and the judiciary seek to promote the idea that all the problems of a country can be placed at the door of an identifiable source ..... immigrants, different religions, unionised labour etc thankfully nothing like that is happening here or in Europe is it ? |  | |  |

seriously you need to use a dictionary. Definition of fascism: 1 often capitalized : a political philosophy, movement, or regime (such as that of the Fascisti) that exalts nation and often race above the individual and that stands for a centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, severe economic and social regimentation, and forcible suppression of opposition 2 : a tendency toward or actual exercise of strong autocratic or dictatorial control having a view, even a mistaken view, on the meaning of gender doesn't come near to that definition. |  |

"Hundred Hands". You can find a telegram channel they post in, and it's pretty obvious what kind of people they are. |  |

I hadn't heard of them before. They haven't made a big noise in the Ipswich-Shotley-Sudbury Golden Triangle yet. I will have to look them up. I will also have to look up 'telegram channel'. I am starting to feel old and ill-informed. |  |

Telegram is a messaging app, a bit like Whatsapp, but it has more features for groups and things like that. Here's another one, just to really hammer it home |  |

Nothing wrong with his reply at all. People thinking it's okay to plaster overt racism around is a pressing issue and needs calling out always. Perfectly normal to call it out when discussing other bigotry, innix :) |  |

"exalts nation and often race above the individual" You're welcome. Although you carry on defending an alt right group if that's the hill you REALLY want to die on here. |  |

I get the labels and equality thing is often said with a heart in the right place, but my thoughts is many groups haven't had that level of equality in living memory, therefore celebrating their culture is important to them and what they've thought for (the right, you know, celebrate their culture). This is also the reason the fact there's no White History Month or Straight Pride Day isn't reverse discrimination. |  |

oh dear, you also need to improve your reading. did you not see the word 'and' and all those other words that followed it? you can't just randomly pick out a few words from a sentence and ignore the rest. EVEN taking the 8 words that you have picked out, how does having a view, even a mistaken one, about the meaning of gender "exalt nation and often race above the individual" ?? You're just using 'fascist' as an all purpose insult. it's childish. |  |

yes, referring to the cretin who sprayed Jude on a building as a social inadequate is certainly going to make him feel more 'mainstream' (though I would suggest calling him a social inadequate is probably lifting him further up social ladder than where he really is) |  | |  |
