I forgot to add that there's a huge difference between ..ists & wing !

Talk about pot kettle black.

Extinction rebellion.
GetUp.
Greenpeace.
Australian Conservation Foundation.

How many more do you want. They are all ratbag lefty groups who are more extreme than anything the right ever even envisages.

Is this meant to be a joke, or are you so far left you can't see what is directly in front of you.

Thinking more on this.
There ain't no battleground on the streets of Neo-Nazis rampaging the suburbs, that'd be African gangs.
With ANTIFA groups rampaging in the cities.

The battlefield they're referring to is the internet and battle for hearts and minds and public opinion.
This is total BS.

Where are the bashings and bombings and acts of terrorism from the neo-nazis?
SHOW ME.
This ain't 1939

You see

Joe,
> But surely that doesn't justify terrorist acts, even if they could be 'understood' that way ?
Of course it doesn't. What you seem to have failed to understand is that the left are as solidly anti terrorism as the right. The difference is what they think is the most effective way of preventing it. Generally the left seek to understand why people become radicalised and to address the perceived injustices which motivate them, while the right prefer to rely on increasing surveillance.

AC; the Holocaust, being one of the most significant events of the 20th century, do you not agree it should be taught in detail in secondary schools?

The terms left and right, we can blame the French for that, might be good for differentiating groups, the fascist, the communists etc, but how far removed from each other are they really, I see both as having much in common. Maybe I agree with Dutton, both are extreme and a danger to society.

That does not answer the question as to what Mike Burgess was warning of. Neo-Nazies and other White Supremacists groups have always been viewed as dangerous to a degree, but not seen as an organised threat to society. Microscopic ratbag group in number, they have never been viewed as having the organisational leadership to be taken seriously. Of course any lone-wolf, or tiny group can be by themselves potentially be very destructive if left unchecked. Is that what Mike Burgess was talking about?
