First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Socialist.
Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Trade Unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.
MARTIN NIEMÖLLER
A Protestant pastor who was openly critical of Hitler and the Nazi regime. He spent the last seven years of the war in Nazi concentration camps. He survived and spoke out for many years after the war about what happens when we remain silent. We must not forget this important lesson. "The man dies in all who keep silent in the face of tyranny." ~ Wole Soyinka
We're onto you, we're organizing, you'll be hearing from us!

Reaching... Inflated self importance. When this doesn't recieve votes or becomes riddled with thoughtful dissagreement will you delete this article as well? There are no Nazis here and you are no hero. You mock history. Meh. Bad theatre / weak satire. 1/10.
Actually there are RL neo fascists here. Whether you believe this or not does not remove the truth of this.
Bigfoot. UFO's. Perpetual motion machines. Free energy. Horny singles near you! These too are mighty foes on the Internet, especially when one takes themselves and their ever changing role playing persona too seriously. Whether you believe this or not does not remove the truth... Blah blah blah. Meh.
Lol whs...seriously dude, start playing a game..
Ah Donovan comes back after a long break and assumes he knows all.
I have had conversations here with said fascists.
Fascism lives only in anti-fascists minds in 21st century.
Don Croata is totally ignorant of Golden Dawn and UKIP lol
Whatever about UKIP there are many far right wing fascist parties in Europe of which Golden Dawn is just one.
Syrisa pwns them all anyway 😉
ukip?
People who are in UKIP, some who have had ties to the BNP or other fascist groups, have fostered xenophobia particularly in England and there have been reports of supporters harassing and attacking people they perceive to be "non-British" or essentially non-white immigrants particularly those from the Middle and Far East.
Hi Colin Yes some members of UKIP are lowlife scum but their leadership, not that I subscribe to their ideology, I don't believe are fascists.
BHP & EDL are for sure but I don't see UKIP in the same boat
I apologize but Scotland just doesn't like or want any part of UKIP and I don't see them in a very positive light especially when dealing with their "supporters".
Reported.
^ Good nazi.
Good player you mean?
I just wanna play a game, not mixing it with RL BS
Everyone's entitled to their own beliefs out of this game. Don't bring then in here to attack people.
I'm a socialist and I see nothing wrong with most modern extreme right wing parties. When persecution over race occurs I draw the line - however UKIP wanting to close borders is something as a socialist I believe in.
A socialist or a national socialist?
ouch!
I'm a socialist, I don't believe we should persecute anyone for their beliefs but EU Immigration is a problem.
Left wing politics isn't about giving everything to everyone. We have a nation, let's build our own nation and deal with our own problems before we "try to save the world".
this eCountry is sick..
Some people don't appreciate history or historical heroes..
oh that well from the ppl that went over to the uk to work there. most said perception they got is that it was the work that british youth thought below their standing . usually a lot has to do with the level of administration. in the us i have the perception government keeps track of you wherever you go. countries where there is a movement against immigration usually those that allow a lot of ppl in with very little control measures.
