| Message | banning research into reusable energies?? Now as a semi free-marketist party we would like to see no subsidies in this which is clearly business, but to ban? Seems overtly hostile to mother earth, and thus againts our princles. Ps: nazis were the ones that ever recogniced animals as anything but property, banning cruelty.. and developed renewable energy... sun and wind power is directly taken from the nazis. Alarming of how ignorant party members are of political history, reading only the propaganda as written by the winners. |

| Message | NU - we are aware of the Nazis having developed renewable energy. "nazis were the ones that ever recogniced animals as anything but property" Yes they were; but they were not the only ones. Unless you are mentally retarded, you would easily recognize animals as property. |
