Sorry mate, but your far right is not the same as our BNP. Really, it isn't. The BNP has no policies or ideas beyond get rid of anyone who isn't white, speaks english and is heterosexual.

Edit :As in the far-right you claim have power. I think a lot of reasons why the far-left, or even moderate left, gets no traction in the US is precisely because of the massive generalisations it tends to make about the 'enemy'. I could be wrong though, maybe some kind of strategic essentialism could work wonders there.

You've misread me here and on your other post.
I didn't say the Republicans were the equivalent of the BNP. For all his faults, I never thought Bush was a racist (he's an economic class snob, sure, but that isn't quite the same thing).
What I said was, the larger Republican sphere of thought has at it's far end the equivalent of the BNP.
There is no political party in the USA that I know of that equates with the BNP itself.... just extreme Republicans (and independents).

What is this, a pissing match? Your fascists are more nasty than our fascists?
