Fucking hell, we don't even have freedom of speech or opinion. What made you think we ever did? I'm from the UK..if I made my political affiliations known publicly I'd lose my job and never get another. I might even find my house or family attacked. And my political beliefs really aren't very extreme. Of course if I could trust people to stop and listen sympathetically instead of calling me a fascist, they might find out. This isn't at all what my family fought the Nazis for.

The moderators on any messageboard come from a variety of backgrounds. Some are extremists, some are insane. Some are reasonable. But at the end of the day, it's just a messageboard, if you don't like it you leave and don't contribute again. But fascists? I think that word gets thrown about way too much.

If you read my post properly before you commented you would see I explained why were are supposed to have protected freedom of speech and why it is supposed to be a basic human right.
