on the subject dv7 is woefully uninformed, sorry to see that you appear to be even less informed

Fascism and Socialism have many more differences than they do similarities. You are just flat out wrong on the topic.
 
Fascism relies on extreme nationalism, a disregard for basic human rights, militarism with an emphasis placed in the importance of the military elite, tightly controlled media run by the state, strong national security typically brought on by creating some sort of common scapegoat for every problem that arises, a disdain for intellectualism (manifested through heavy censorship), and a lack of true democratic elections. Socialism does literally none of these things. Yes, a fascist government may socialize some/all industries, but only in a way that benefits the power elite and not all of the population. Socializing something doesn't necessarily make it socialist; the socialization of industry can happen in a way that is strictly fascist.

Fascism.
 
Oh hey, I just realized that I recognize the area code on their phone number.
The Grand Wizard, or whatever their supreme leader is called used to reside in Davidson County. Davidson has always been a hotbed of KKK members. Back in the late 90s, there's a fairly famous Springer show where he appeared on the show.

You must be joking.
 

Was this to commemorate Rosh Hashanah? Very thoughtful if so.

Now I don't have the wherewithal to validate the religion or ethnicity or sexual preference of everyone on that list, but I'm guessing either George Lucas or his wife is surprised to see him outed on this list.
 
Every non-Jewish white person just gets labeled "gay". Mellody Hobson, George Lucas' black wife, is on there too and labeled gay, which I guess is worse than black, or at least more noteworthy.
 
Sounds like the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics.

The USSR was socialist in the same way that North Korea and Turkmenistan are republics. We've already been over the name thing.
 
I like how Rupert Murdoch and Roger Ailes are both suspected to be gay.
