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

"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.
In that context, you're possibly better calling them Nazis - being an ideology explicitly centered upon hatred, blame and destruction of the "other" (particularly Jews, in the 20th century German version).

There are only 2 genders though.
"Out you popped and everyone’s shouting: “It’s a boy, it’s a boy!” And somebody said: “But it hasn’t got a winkle!” And I said: “God be praised, it’s a miracle. A boy without a winkle!” And then Sir Thomas More pointed out that a boy without a winkle is a girl. Everyone was really disappointed."

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.
So for something to be fascist it has to tick all the boxes for you. Okaaaay.
And then we all ask why the country is gradually heading that way.

Momentum are everywhere.....remember!
Maybe your online efforts have helped these tools to feel more mainstream!

Unlike Callis, I deliberately avoided bringing party politics into this thread, no matter what my personal thoughts on the matter. Shame you couldn't have done the same.

Transphobia is the oppression of those that do not conform to the "2 genders" belief. If you extend the definition of fascism beyond just race or nationality and open it to the oppression of those that do not conform to the "white British Christian male/female" that these organisations believe then it is fascism.

the country is not heading that way. stop making stuff up. and use words according to their proper meaning. you just devalue political debate by using words wrongly and throwing about accusations which are simply ridiculous. it becomes name calling and hysteria. jeez.
And so as the loose-bowelled pigeon of time swoops low over the unsuspecting tourist of destiny, and the flatulent skunk of fate wanders into the air-conditioning system of eternity, I notice it's the end of the show

To be fair I thought your OP was doing that at first, hence my comment. With wider context of post history you can see why.
I wonder who the person(s) plastering these stickers around voted for?

So a fascist group finding the confidence to post fascist statements publicly is all imaginary then. Again, okaaaay.
As I said before, you die on that hill if you feel comfortable but I’d rather call it out for what it is.

actually most of the trans movement is based on an incredibly strong commitment to the '2 genders belief'. many trans people have the most extreme commitment to traditional binary gender sterotypes - it's just that they want adopt the gender that wasn't allocated to them at birth. if they didn't hold strongly to the binary '2 genders belief' then being transgender would have no meaning at all.
but you're right. if you change the definition of fascism then it can mean whatever you want it to mean.

Dunno, I could have a good guess who they didn't vote for.
I'd hazard a guess that they probably voted for the Roger Godsiff, who the local Labour MP who backed their protest against teaching same sex relationships.
See why it's always silly to jump to conclusions. You look at everything as black and white.

I don't think it's silly at all to hold what politicians condone to get votes to account.
