Rank politicians
I have concerns with Vladimir Putin and his cronies that echo this opposition groups’ 2009 concerns with him: “ We see the "successes" of Vladimir Putin's policy only on television, when in reality we observe a continuous deterioration in all spheres of life. Citizens of Russia are still dying at the rate of a million a year. Utility rates are constantly rising. Paid medicine and education are being introduced. In fact, censorship has been established in the media. Elections at all levels are fully controlled by the government and business. Russia's interests in the CIS countries are being surrendered. The Caucasus is on fire, and Kadyrov's bandit clan is financed from the Russian budget. The incomes of the oligarchs are constantly rising (fighting some of them, the authorities redistribute capital in favor of others). The list of failures and crimes of power can be continued. Under these conditions, we do not consider it possible to provide any support to the authorities and consider the Kremlin regime as oligarchic, despotic and anti-national. The figure of President Putin in this case is significant, since he is at the head of destructive processes. In today's Russia, in relation to the personality and political course of Putin, one can evaluate the opposition of various parties. Fake, Kremlin-controlled "oppositionists" of all stripes may oppose the government, the State Duma, some Khodorkovsky, but they never criticize the current president. True oppositionists (including the NBP) are not afraid to speak out against Putin. As for Russia's external enemies (we include the United States among them), we consider the fight against them to be secondary at this stage. It must be understood that the NBP is not located in the Kremlin, therefore, today it does not have leverage over the same Americans. In order to actively participate in the foreign policy arena, it is necessary to start with the victory of healthy forces within Russia itself.”
I am ok with the National Bolshevik Party Russia and I have no issues with the totalitarian and fascist symbols they used since they had a good defense for it

Anti Hero, Satisafactory Int groups (historical): Social Alternative
Groups who I LOVE to HATE, I view as 1980s Sympathetic Anti Heroes (less harsh than viewing them as 1980s Anti Heroes), I would call these groups bad apples but say we shouldn't stereotype all groups in their area as bad apples due to the actions of these bad apple groups. Then I would mention all of the positive traits of those non bad apple groups and abstain from labeling these groups as good or bad etc: alternate history Official National Front's Mars branch (in realities where Mars had the same type of history as Earth and Official National Front had a Mars branch of their organization on Mars)
If there was an Anti Official National Front group that was set up to oppose Official National Front, I would view that Anti Official National Front group the same way that Nicodemus in the bible viewed Jesus. I'd also try to personally get members of Official National Front to be non racist and non anti Jewish (but also to become conservative on many views they were liberal on to offset that)
Etc
Occupy Movement was a much needed movement who helped fight for the 99 and against the senseless fiscal decadence of the rich
I am a Libertarian, so I can sympathize with Barry Goldwater's 1964 vote against the Civil Rights Act
If I was a politician back then and had to vote on it, I very very likely would have cast my vote as Negative 1st political position fused with abstain for the reason below which I would have stated:
I believe that the government/state should stay out of enforcing moral changes in at least some to more than most situations. Moral evolution can happen many times apart of the government/state and relations between people can emerge with freedom from the government/state. Most relationships in life should not be characterized as conflict as the left and right might have it. It's good to have mutual and humane respect for others as individuals. It's also good to do positive and unselfish things without having to grapple with the political ramifications of doing those positive things)
However, after doing that mock vote above and making the statement above, I then would have voted for the bill but tried to, after it passed to continue to refine it so it would be exactly like JFK would have made it if he was alive
Gabriele D’Annunzio
Good magazines: France Observateur (1950s New Left , Third Way version)
