All that stuff about Israel is interesting but it should be a separate thread - maybe I'll start one.
It's very unwise to qualify disapproval of racism in the political world, which labour has somewhat done. You are also doing it, which isn't as electorally destructive because we presume that it's your personal opinion. Nonetheless , you're doing them no favours even with this small audience.
I haven't said that Labour are planning a new holocaust , ( theyd **** it up like everything else if they did ), but that they're inflaming the same prejudices in the same groups which led to the last one.
You say that there's some technical difference between other socialists and Nazis , and there may be, but to all practical purposes it's much the same thing. It's theoretical nonsense born of envy and revenge which can't work and never has worked, but usually results in incrementally more insane and inhuman cruelties until someone puts a stop to it.
The bottom line is that they both disregard the individual human being as anything else but a cog in the machine of an all powerful state which promises a better world but only produces misery, starvation and desolation.
There we are, there's the sensible discussion you invited -perhaps we should have yet another thread about why anyone still thinks socialism might work next time despite the 100% record of failures so far and the millions of human beings it has killed through violence and starvation.
