- Absolute right? Absolute wrong? WHAT'S THAT??? These are things
- each individual needs to decide for himself or herself; after all, isn't
- that what that big grey mass on top of our shoulders is for???
-
- As for the issue of neo-Nazi sentiments, it will accomplish nothing
- to slap another right/wrong label on them. This sentiment grows in the
- lower-income white neighborhoods. These people consequently make them-
- selves both the oppressor and the oppressed. They bow down to the
- dominant white culture that runs our government, most of our businesses,
- our television programming, and in general, our culture. While they
- hope for a "kick back" from the dominant white culture, they take their
- agressions on the less fortunate people, primarily non-whites.
-
- The issue at hand is how we, as human beings, can all live on this
- planet. This involves dealing with the inequities of all groups of
- people, with the OBJECTIVE of finding the means for everyone to co-
- exist. Nazi principles conflict with this objective, as it propogates
- this same theme of "finding someone else to take your shit out on." I
- would certainly hope that there are enough people out there committed
- to ironing out the numerous differences between the various cultures
- that exist on this planet, and not just go around pointing fingers at
- people.
-
- I don't know if that's RIGHT, or if it's WRONG, but it sounds like
- a damn good idea if we are to survive on this planet as a species.
