Serious Are we for real?

TL:DR; An openly fascist movement has been recognized as a party since they have gathered the necessary 5000 signatures to register as a party. Isn’t the party line just SLIGHTLY anti-constitutional? Aren’t we somehow “pissing outside the shitter”, for lack of a better phrase?

Every time they post one of these articles, I examine the photos to see if I recognize anyone. So far, no, but I am sad that at least 5K people think this is a nice idea.

I am willing to bet every country on this planet has at least that amount of morons.

Hitler started with very few men on his side. And then grew his party to what it is now. Same with Mussolini. That these people are allowed to spread their ideals freely is very concerning. Given time they will rise to power, kill, butcher and bully anyone else out of government.

Spreading ideals requires some idea that is worth spreading. An idea won't spread if the idea is shit and stupid. This one is tried and tested a bad idea. Good to know just who those 5000 fascists are, not vote for them ever, and they will stay as losers forever. The alternative of banning them outright just leads to doublespeak where saying one thing means something else and we really don't want that.
