I found this report someone wrote up to be very informative. Mind you its 87 pages long.

It explores the nature of Fascism and why the term doesn't have the meaning it once did and why liberals and conservatives are to blame (although it does criticize conservatives the most for recent activity, liberals it blames for stuff in the 60's and 70's. But really there is plenty of blame to go around).

Although many will not read it due to its length I ask everyone to, regardless of political leanings.

Hopefully the link will work.

YAY! Link works :)

I think this is the PDF in HTML form (well, in online text form anyway. Its php. *continues splitting hairs*).

I know there are many people from looking at the thread count who have visited and are likely reading the report (or at least skimming ). ;)

However, due to its length it will take lots of time to comment on it and this thread will fall to oblivion if something isn't done about it.

Therefore! I will ask everyone to put something totally random on this thread until the debating starts. Even if its just that you are now reading it.

As for me...here is my impression of a duck.

*quack**quack**quack*

*woof!*

ah shit...
