So, is V for Vendetta still legal in UK?
- JupiterMoon 11y agoWe are not there yet. When one boils a frog one must increase the temperature slowly.
- dghf 11y agoNever mind V for Vendetta, what about Robin Hood? Hard-left propaganda glorifying armed robbery and violence against public officials under the guise of wealth redistribution. In the eighties series Robin of Sherwood, the Sheriff does at one point describe Robin and his gang as terrorists.
- gadders 11y agoThat's strange, as Robin Hood is a right-wing hero, fighting against excessive taxation and oppressive government.
- harel 11y agoI've never thought of him like that. That makes a lot of sense!
- rmc 11y agoDepends on your branch of right wing. Some right wing governments (e.g. Nazis) have ben very in favour of the government being able and duty-bound to oppress people.
- gadders 11y agoThat would be the National Socialist party, right?
- dghf 11y agoSocialist in the same way that the German Democratic Republic was democratic.
- gadders 11y agoEconomically socialist, at least. [1] [1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Socialist_Program#The_25-point_Program_of_the_NSDAP http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Socialist_Program#The_...
- rmc 11y agoThat was written in 1920, before they even adopted the name "Nationalsozialistische". It's better to look at what they did while in power. About a year after getting power in 1934, was the Night of the Long Knives when the party assinated the more left wing higher ups in the party who wanted wealth redistribution. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Night_of_the_Long_Knives_(1934) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Night_of_the_Long_Knives_(1934)
- rmc 11y agoNo, it was the Nationalsozialismus party. "Schoolhouse" isn't a type of "house", and Nationalsozialismus wasn't a socialist party. Their main political enemies were the Communist Party and the Social Democratic Party, both left wing.
