I assume you do, or did. After all, how many other psychoslices are there likely to be? Some MBTI forum or other, as I recall.

From the recent ill-timed extremist attack, it looks like the right wing parties have got a great shot in the arm and will probably emerge victors in the elections.

Terrorism has a lot to answer for

There is a saying by Nietzche...

He who fights with monsters should look to it that he himself does not become a monster.

The proper attitude should be kept while countering terrorism, so that the state does not become a greater terrorist entity than the terrorists themselves later on.

No, this is not debatable. Europe is a continent. The EU is an organisation. I love Europe.

So call it the European continent

Your opinion is noted and ignored.

i am European, i live under the auspices of the EU. I will not chance common, recognised language because you don't like it

What are you talking about?

EU =/= Europe.

This is common sense. You can ignore me all you want. I am European too. Not every country in Europe is part of the EU, so what about them? What about Norway? Is that not part of Europe because it's not in the E.U.? What ignorance you display.

I posted that quote on Quotes from famous freethinkers about a week ago.

That's placing Hitler near the middle of the collectivism/libertarianism axis. That doesn't make him a centrist. If he were a centrist, he'd be a lot further down the scale in the authoritarianism axis.


That is a dual axis chart, left - right and libertarian, authoritarian

Hitlers policies would score close to central on the left - right axis.

if you want a description of how the chart is calculated see The Political Compass

But this is wrong and people should stop it. There is a huge difference.

Ok so its wrong... I agree but it ius still common parlance, even you understood what i was saying.

People have been saying god is truth for millennia, also wrong and people should stop doing it.

Uh...that is hardly an apt comparison.

That the EU and Europe are not the same is a base fact.

That G-d exists is a matter of opinion.

Are you just here to preach your hate against theists?

Again, that doesn't make him a centrist because a centrist is not an authoritarian. Hitler's policies had some "socialist" aspects, but it wasn't leftist economic socialism because the Nazis weren't adverse to capitalism itself. They were not egalitarians at all. It was a sort of racial "socialism" where community is based on their racial theories. They believed that if you were an "Aryan", your genes were like gold but they still had a social hierarchy within that in that there would still be class inequalities (a German peasant would be worth more than a Russian university professor in their eyes). They were like Fascist Third Positionists in that they didn't believe in Marxist class conflict, but class collaboration.
