If capitalists are mostly sociopaths, then one would expect their political ideas to be sociopathic. The members of political parties that represent their ideas would be immersed in sociopathic thinking.

The only slaves who are happy, are the crazy ones.
Ugh, in the U.S, on Twitter, there is this turd account called "Cloyd Rivers", with an avatar of a redneck or whatever. He just spends all his time posting racially charged bullshit about Obama and illegals and how if you "don't stand behind the troops, you can stand in front of them". Needless to say, he is very popular. A bunch of middle class white kids with the political education of a rat love his posts thinking he is like the next Voltaire or whatever. A few weeks ago some idiot that I followed since I knew him from High School basically wrote "Sarah Bland deserved what she got". A few people insulted/reprimanded him and he backed off by saying "I meant get arrested, not that she died". I tend to try to ignore these things from people I know because I do get the genuine urge to take a baseball ball to their knees.
And it seems pointless to actually debate these people for the simple reason that they can always fall back on existing ideology to make you look "crazy" ("You don't support the troops? rolf rofl rofl terrorist commie") to other people.
I've just had a look at that twitter page. Awful.
Filled with absolute shite and the typical fallacy of "We can't criticse X if it's wrong because Y goes on" apparently, we cannot criticise the killing of a Lion because some veterans are homeless.
Not so long ago, national-conservatives here complained about how the EU paid money to Morocco to stop migrants.... "oh, they are allowed to stop migrants, even get paid by the EU, but we aren't?" failing to see that those migrants have the EU as destination, not Morocco, and that Morocco gets paid probably to evade more lax migration rules of the EU...![]()
pew pew pew
They detest all that is foreign so badly that they cannot look over this hate even when it may help them reach their goals, such as giving money to foreigners to prevent them coming to their own nations.
They are all so silly. They have such a black and white simplistic view of the world. You can tell they've never asked why certain things have happened and how we can make the world a better place, they are ruled by a fear of the world and all that is outside of their cosy definitions.
Yeah I guess, but he's a reactionary son-of-a-***** who's drifting towards white supremacy. He sometimes posts "WhiteLivesMatter" memes where whites are the victims of black criminals (even though those criminals were arrested, tried, and convicted). One time he even posted a meme about the mass shooting in Connecticut where one black guy killed a bunch of his white coworkers and compared it to the racist massacre in Charleston (even though this shooting happened in 2010 and received full news coverage).
This shit is far too common on the internet these days.
What they don't understand is that it's NOT equal. A black man killing a white man, usually in an act of crime and as you point out, they are always convicted swiftly and jailed. It's usually motivated by poverty yet the right wing persecution complex is strong and they twist it into some racial attack. While the shootings by whites on blacks tend to be racially motivated. Of course, a crime is a crime but they are deliberately misrepresenting an act of robbery out of poverty as a racial attack by a man perceiving himself to be superior.
However (and I say this as a white European man) there is a widespread stereotyping and classification of black males as criminals or at least criminalistic which leads to no second chances for black males, well black people overall. The police tend to stereotype them as criminals and behaviour is then automatically classed as criminalistic, for example, the killing of an unarmed black man recently because the cop perceived him to be using his car as a weapon. Or because one decided to sprint away from a police officer. This results from the stereotyping of black males as being criminals. This is deeply embedded in the institutions that aim to police us.
Plus, when you fit this into a background of near constant deprivation of rights for black people overall throughout the history of the West, combined with us actually enslaving them, it becomes a bigger and far worse issue.
So they can get fucked with their persecution complex "Whitey gets it hard from the nasty brown people" bullshit.
I have observed Britain First for a long time and I've also had the pleasure of knowing some prime people in their leadership.
But .......... They aren't Christians. They tend to pledge their allegiance to the Pope and this is though love of Knights Templar imagery and Roman Catholicism. In the same ways they share in the similar cultural belief system of Russian Neo-Nazis who pledge their allegiance to the Russian Orthodox Church.
Stand and think for one moment. In Britain today a good majority of young Christian congregations tend to be Born Again/Evangelical. Now when was the last time you saw a Britain First member sing "Jesus you are my best friend"?
Britain First uses religion to subdue & dominate people just like Anjem Choudary's gang intimidate people with their Jihadist dogma.
