In it the author gave several definitions of fascism. My favourite one was, 'everything inside the state, nothing outside the state'. I think the same thing can now be said fairly and squarely about liberalism, 'everything inside liberalism, nothing outside liberalism'. In short order they've taken over everything:<br /><br />- Politics (it doesn't matter who you vote for, you get liberal)<br />- Education<br />- Employment<br />- The Church<br />- The police<br />- The judiciary<br />- Religion<br />- The press and media<br />- The BBC<br />- Music<br /><br />I could continue. And now of course the latest thing is the monarchy. Is this some kind of warped attempt at a 'liberal coronation'. I wouldn't put it past them. It has huge symbolic value does it not?. Certainly you don't do something like that without thinking about it in advance.<br /><br />I think our Bishops had better start planning for the worst. We need a sort of Marshall Zhukov style war plan just in case everything starts going pear shaped and going pear shaped a lot quicker than we think.<br /><br />BJCAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2389530333077823143.post-30170702814902962682012-03-22T22:57:02.307+00:002012-03-22T22:57:02.307+00:00Or "Hi your Majesty, I'm the President of...Or "Hi your Majesty, I'm the President of a gay advocacy group called the Kaleidoscope Trust.
