I'm not saying we need these things, I'm saying the reason the BNP is getting votes is because of things like this. The media, especially films can leave subconscious beliefs which will later influence our decisions, kind of like subliminal advertising.

I find it pretty scary the message you managed to get from V for Vendetta was "strong governments are awesome".

The Nazi-Germany remark was aimed at showing how strong governments do actually work (not saying I support them) and how history repeats itself.

I was just pointing it out actually, no ulterior motives!
