AND IF I

see that bloody Vlaams Blok Propaganda on the VRT one more time I swear to god I'll take a gun to the Reyerslaan! AAAAAAAAAARGH. I know I know, freedom of speech and all that shit. ABOLISH IT!
No. No. We can keep freedom of speech... But I hate the fact that the Vlaams BLok is now treated as just "another party", they're everywhere, invited to every single debate and seen as a "respectable normal" party. And I can't stand it. Bigoted me? Don't know. Maybe. But they're so good in their propaganda that it's scary. People aren't ashamed of voting extreme right anymore and that scares me too. People don't know what they vote for... that makes me a tad happier, though it doesn't change the amount of votes they have. A huge amount if I look at the amount of airtime they get. And the simplicity of their arguments.
People vote for what they understand, and -let's face it- people don't want to think any harder than they have to. So If Mr Dewinter can say "out with moroccons" as a response to the immigration 'problem' (which is completely illegal and impossible) as opposed to any other politician that has to come up with a realistic, legal, truthful discours that lasts 10 minutes longer... Dewinter wins.

Just saw Chris en Yves' (two mentally handicapped reporters) vision on Pride on Man Bijt Hond. Their most pressing question was who'd mow the lawn if there's not a husband and a wife. They also discussed how better to come out, with one huge fight with both your parents or two fights by telling them seperately. Fabulous TV!
