The 10AM Live Show
with the Pathetic Left Winger Thinks we are leading to Fascism? He then admitted he had to give up his other job on BBC Newsnight as he was told off for calling Early Trump, Fascism. The Same Topic is on BBC2HD Early Politics Live but they do not call it Fascism at all. It is all about the Northern Ireland Problem of not allowing UK goods to them, Last edited by arista; 28-06-2022 at 10:21 AM. |

It's not really the use of the word patriot, it's the fact she was asked an intelligent question, and the fact she had absolutely no way to answer the question other than by resorting to the language of authoritarians.
We have a proto fascist government which can still be reversed with elections. If the tories win the next general, then there may not be free elections for a long time.

There's nothing wrong with the word patriot generally, it is however used frequently these days as a mask for something that is not really "patriotism" at all (ethnocentric jingoism).

How intellectually derelict would someone need to be to associate (non-extreme) patriotism with fascism?

There inevitably MUST be a "tipping point" where the consensus flips from one to the other. Hard to point to exactly where that is, though. There will be wildly differing opinions. |

Nothing says patriotism quite like legally silencing those speaking against government policy

There is a fair bit of modern confusion that patriotism = supporting the active government and government policy, which is of course not patriotism at all. A true patriot would strongly oppose any government that they feel is damaging their country. I think this is something that ultimately they DO seem to understand stateside but we struggle with here in the UK. "Not supporting Boris and the Tories" is viewed as unpatriotic...

Of course you would, because you don’t believe in actual freedom

Isn't it supposed to be legal to peacefully protest in this country?
I swear with each day I feel like we're going backwards.
