Your reptilian brain won't let you stop telegraphing high status and reproductive fitness signals to your fellow monkeys.

LOL, have you ever actually seen Facebook?

High status and reproductive fitness? Not so much.

Keep telling yourself that, buddy.

You took a clearly tongue-in-cheek response and treated it like something absolutely serious in order to get offended. This is Tumblr-grade offense.

Speaking of that, please count the number of incidents you were involved in from this list :)

I think I may be scarred now and I only saw the mental image.

Hasn't this tired car analogy run it's course by now? Every time I hear "Turbo!" I think of this guy. JFC.

No, they aren't far right wing. And if you can't tell the difference between the neo-Nazi Stormfront and the Daily Beast, you need a depot level recalibration of your political sensibilities - something is fundamentally broken, malfunctioning, or miscalibrated. I understand from the far left the distance between them may seem to vanish, but it is a trick of perspective, they aren't even close... at all.

I'll get you started: In lieu of anything else, think of the difference between the Greens and Pol Pot's regime and apply. (And I think this is a generous narrowing of the difference.)

One other thing you might keep in mind: In American politics, the right did something the left has never been willing to do - drive out the dangerous fringe. Actual Nazis and neo-Nazis (including Stormfront), generally fringe nut cases in the United States in the last 75 years*, have not been, and are not part of the right in America. They are an offshoot of progressive & socialist politics. (Hence the Socialist in National Socialist.) Who Is 'Fascist'?

You might benefit from occasionally indulging in material from a viewpoint that challenges your views from a center-right perspective, and no, that doesn't include EDL or Stormfront. Since you comment regularly on American politics, some examples might include: National Review, The Weekly Standard, Commentary. You might try some reading on the first link in the previous post as well.

Its a common straw man argument, pretending this is about lightly clad women. It isn't. That's fine. The problem is when women are portrayed constantly as mere objects. Take a look: Sexist Modern Ad Examples and Sexist Superbowl Ads. The point you both are missing is that constant sexism has an impact on society, and Europe wants to address that impact. That the sexism itself IS the cause of some societal problems, rather than a mere symptom. It is both a symptom and a cause.
