I was one of the people who stole the newspapers off the fash the other
day, and I hold a no-platform position. I did this because some people
dont know what the BNP are like, and might be taken in by their bullshit
propaganda about 'freedom' etc. I helped take their platform away in
glasgow on saturday, to help ensure they didn't gain influence.

However, Indymedia is used and run by people who are not decieved by the
BNP's crappy propaganda in our comments section, and I think some of us
are enjoying slagging them off, and hearing what their crazy ideas are:
Indymedia is therefore  not a platform for their ideas, since they have
and will gain no influence here.

But I would definitely advocate hiding their articles, if they posted
any, since they are just trash and would make our site look very bad.
Comments are not so important in my opinion. I would certainly hide the
comments that are abusive.

And please don't tell me to go to Russia to get killed by fascists, that
is uncalled for.

Jon
