2. GREAT news!

I had always though that far-RW nationalist groupings were problematic because by definition the far-RW nationalists from one country would regard all the others as bloody foreigners - BOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

Now the grouping is indeed breaking down, and it won't be missed! Yeah!!!!

There can only be one master race that must enslave all the others.

When you make inequality the cornerstone of your creed, by definition you preclude it from being universal
