    Lightbulb FYI - March Against Racism. 23rd October, Wellington.

    Hey All,
    This is just for your info. If you want to get into a debate about it go right ahead.

    March Against Racism

    Date: Saturday 23rd October 2004, 12 midday.

    Start Venue: Te Papa, Wellington.

    Info about who is organising it: http://mca.enzyme.org.nz/ Multi-Cultural Aotearoa. Personally I don't necessarily agree with their philosophies but I am against racism. It's that "latte sipping, turtle neck wearing, limp wristed, liberal" part of me
    My goal in life is to be as good a person as my dog already thinks I am.

    I wonder if we'll get another article from David McClouglin complaining about the "facist liberals" opressing the National Front.
    Look, it's an itsy bitsy Bandit.

    Well, if you did, you could bet the pedantrists would descend en masse, pointing out that there's no such thing as a 'facist'.

    Without wanting to categorise myself by "descending" on this thread, "facism" is generally a term some people use to categorise other people with political views that differ from theirs...

    Arguably the PC (politically correct, in case I offend any geeks) brigade we've all come to know and love practice their own special form of facism.

    Lazy journalists often use cliched epithets: e.g. "childless Helen Clark", "ageing rocker Rod Stewart", etc. They should be burned at the stake...

    But "facism" isn't. You did pick up on the fact that I was lowering myself to the level of spelling correction, didn't you?

    And yes, I doubt many people are familiar with the particular brand of politics that is rightly branded as Fascism.

    It's a poke at my spelling, not the existence or otherwise of fascists 8).

    Can we retire that term? Whining about "political correctness" has become the new political correctness.

    And fascism, as a political philosophy is a mile away from anything that might be identified as PC. Ask the man who first put it into practise.
    Look, it's an itsy bitsy Bandit.

    I see in the Press that the National Front are going to be there too. They want to hold talks with the Maori Party and see what they both have in common. I wonder if the Destiny Curch will be there.

    PS We are all of 'one' race: homo sapien. Hope that is spelt correctly.
