Since Patchy's Dear Leader seems to be the hot topic on this board right now, us ignorant barbarians should atone for our sins of self-gratification and give Prince Toilet Brush the respect he deserves. So, what punishment befits the dastardly crime of subversive free expression on these boards?

PS: If you refuse to take part in this poll, you are obviously being evasive and harbouring subversive thoughts.

Is it really propaganda? I think the explanations they've presented are valid, (albeit, seems to lead to lots of swords churning on bodies.)

Subversive, me?

Anyway I chose the 'Over the hedge' option.. anything to get away from patchy!

Actually patchy and co occasionally give some valid information and interesting links to provide a less one-sided view on NK matters. But then they distort and use them to sprout a whole load of BS, and dismiss or refuse to acknowledge any other source of information.

Their usual rethoric is that NK may not be all white the US and *insert conspiracy theory here* do bad things too, so that whitewashes all the rest. Unfortunately the real world is not about bad guys and good guys, it's all shades of (dirty) grey. Naive...

There is Patchy's theory that NK refugees are probably criminals and probably deserved whatever punishment was meted out to them by the Dear Leader ... and lets not forget what he says about the Zionists ...

I feel the same as you. But I would also add Patchy's personal attacks to the list of BS.

Shit, so there's about 200,000 'criminals' (number subject to heavy discussion, probably higher) hiding out in northwest China. Though stuff, NK must have the wildest crime rate ever. If those criminals are that dangerous I understand better why the officials deny them food and withold foreign medical aid.

And, aaah, the 'zionists'. I lived a good part of my childhood in a mainly jewish neighbourhood, and to date a good part of my best friends are from there. I truly resent them for not letting me into their world domination scheme.

He likes to claim that all the people that are escaping NK are criminals, when on the other hand claims that NK is pretty much a crime free country. Hmmmmm..... something isn't adding up here.

I was just pointing out how ridiculous and polemic those theories sounded in that other thread.

Apart from that, the purpose of this thread is to enjoy our free speech while it lasts.

Yes, I should spend more time like you, Barking Mad Lord Snapcase, making threads about other posters, asking what the forum thinks about such-and-such a person ... and also start a poll on the subject.

They are ridiculous and polemic these theories in 'that other thread', aren't they?

Because there's such a lot of free speech going on in the west.

ThoughtCrimes Archive

"Anyone who challenges the prevailing orthodoxy finds himself silenced with surprising effectiveness. A genuinely unfashionable opinion is almost never given a fair hearing."
- George Orwell

Revisionist author Professor Robert Faurisson is severely
injured in a nearly fatal attack on September 16, 1989. Three
assailants sprayed a stinging gas into his face, punched him until he
fell to the ground. They proceeded to savagely kick him in the face and chest. Faurisson, who was 60 years old at the time, suffered a broken jaw and severe head injuries. Physicians operated for four and a half hours to repair his jaw and treat a broken rib and badly swollen face. [Full Story in link.]

I'm all for free speech. Say whatever you want to friends and family. But when it is in a public form and comes in the form of hatred, racism and incorrect history -- society has a right to censor. Anything outside of that is alright (like a lot of the religious revisionism, statements of polygamy, abortion / right to life, nationalism etc.......).

You are definitely "patchy" using people like Zundel and Irving to decry the West's lack of free speech. Kooky. I'd love to know how you came to the views you have --- must be some major insecurities.......if you ever have time in your life, I can introduce you to a lot of victims. It would do you a world of good to sit down and listen to their stories. Think about it. Or if you wish, start with Martin Gilbert's purely factual data in his book, "Holocaust".
