    If you read histories of the 1930s and are appalled so many people did nothing and think "yeah I would have stood up against fascists" well you're in luck! Actual fascists are in our largest media company. Now's your chance.

        As a school boy in the 1940’s I pondered how Hitler & his cronies ever came to power. I am 83 this year & I am now witnessing that which I pondered all those years ago. The whole world needs to wake up to prevent extreme right wing demagoguery taking over our Parliaments !

        Hitler was receiving the same global support of conglomerates & the filthyrich across the world we see today; his racism against the jews was trumped up to shift focus & provide justification for the removal of #dueprocess & #democraticprinciples;

        A large slice of Britain’s people supported Hitler’s regime & many in the Royal Family especially Edward. Eventually this became a factor in having him replaced as King by his brother! Just because Nazis have considerable numbers does not mitigate their EVIL in any way !

        Mussolini the creator of modern fascism said it should be more appropriately called corporatism because it's the union of government & corporate power. Since WW2 democracies have slowly turned fascist. We didn't win WW2. The bankers did. Globalism=corporatism=fascism. Same thing.pic.twitter.com/okYTFxtvlj

        I must have asked 20 different right wingers why they are freaking out about SkyNews not being able to broadcast the views of a Nazi when 30,000+ Aussie soldiers dies fighting nazis. Not one reply. Not one.

        They imposed their own ban. ABC and Seven also gave him a platform. Censorship is not the answer. It’s the right which is standing up for free speech. It’s the left which shuts it down.

        Bullshit. Freedom of speech does not mean anyone has the right to a platform to voice whatever racist, sexist shit their little minds can come up with without consequence and accountability. Freedom of speech comes with great responsibility. It is not a hate speech green card.

        Nonsense. It’s not the goodthinkful whose speech needs protecting: nobody will ever object to it. It’s the mad, bad and dangerous who need that protection. Once you deviate from that, the only question is what precise powers you’re willing to grant the Thought Police.

        Always entertaining to watch how quickly these "mad, bad, and dangerous" individuals dissolve into victimhood when challenged. If these views had any merit they would be heard, but you don't get to pretend ideas of division, racism and sexism are intelligent offerings. #broflake

        Although we’re an ineffective fake government department, we confirm that is a good idea.

        There's an interesting parallel between Murdoch and Baron Von Hugenberg. Hugenberg was the juncker press mouthpiece for Hitlerlite policies like the ANSCHLUSS. An analogous scenario is Murdoch's marshalling of public opinion on BREXIT. Beware kids, beware xoxo
