Politics ad absurdam

[DanaC]

rk, censorship is and has been a feature of many types of society and government. That it may also have been one of the tools utilitised by fascist regimes, does not mean any state where censorship is in place is fascistic. You practice censorship in America. You limit what can be seen, or heard, by whom. You also limit what can be printed and prosletysed by such groups as the KKK. You draw the line at the point that you believe words and actions have merged to become a threat of harm to someone. The difference in Europe, and also in Britain, is where we draw that line.


Censorship does not equate to fascism. Fascism is a great deal more than that. Not all systems employing censorship are fascist, but fascist states all use censorship.
