Updated - George Orwell

Historical Figure (1903-1950)

Novelist, political commentator and Patron Saint of Decency, George Orwell's ideas form the basis of modern Muscular Liberalism.

While he garners much respect for having physically confronted fascism by enlisting to fight in the Spanish Civil War, he is particularly lionised by Muscular Liberals for his political writings.

His most important and relevant works heap derision upon elitist Hampstead liberals and the Ivory Tower intelligentsia, rigorously refuting and ridiculing their moral relativism and liberal guilt.

Orwell was also the celebrated author of works on linguistic accuracy in political speech, inspiring Decents to eschew all forms of propaganda and weasel words when arguing.

His influence upon Decency cannot be overstated, and all over Britain hundreds of committed Muscular Liberals dedicate themselves to ensuring that his vision becomes reality.


An Anatomy of Decency - How Orwell's Vision Was Realised




Problematically, however, historians tend to gloss over Orwell's psychotic hatred of elephants, which he hunted and executed by the thousand, gunning them down without mercy while laughing in celebration.


Selected Bibliography

Homage To Catalonia - Entertaining knock-about larks in Spain, in which the author comes to realise that physically fighting fascists in wars should be secondary to penning venomous screeds denouncing The Left.

Notes On Nationalism - Fiery polemic dissecting the tendency of useful idiots to don ideological blinkers that prevent them from perceiving politically inconvenient facts, leading to the acceptance of irrational, illogical and highly partisan beliefs, like a gaggle of unstoppably dense football supporters.

Animal Farm - Cautionary tale describing how the Far Left became everything it once despised by allying itself with its former foes, rather than working democratically with Man to incrimentally advance the cause of Animalkind.

Politics And The English Language - Masterclass in the art of Decent discourse.

Some Guy With a Website

Fountain of Knowledge/Vanguard of Fascism

Sum Gye With Ah Wehb-Syte

1. An invaluable source of information, Some Guy With a Website provides insight and expertise into the technical specifications of military hardware, the velocities and trajectories of countless projectile weapons, the history of printing and fonts on typewriters and computers, sunlight and shadow in digital and film photography, editing technology, political history and gossip, amongst many other subjects, all of which is put to good use proving that the armed forces of Civilised nations have never, at any point, killed or injured anyone.

2. As above, but put to good use proving that the Academic/Media Complex and Humanitarian NGOs act in malign confederacy against Democrats to blacken their names with a daily litany of false accusations about the legitimate security operations of western nations.

3. An arch-propagandist with a suspicious, obsessive urge to post daily stories portraying an ethnic or religious minority as a dire threat to the life of the nation. Some Guy With a Website viciously and repeatedly insists that said minority bears responsibility for most of the world's problems, before inviting his readers to indulge in a prolonged hate session. The mere existence of such a Guy With a Website is evidence of the neverending corruption and perfidy of The Left.

"Hey, did you hear that Some Guy With a Website has run those Reuters photos through his algorithmic transmogriphicationaliser, and it turns out it was all the Palestinians' fault?"

"Wow, I always thought that looked suspicious. Hey, look - Some Guy With a Website says that the Americans are trying to flog the Iraqis' natural resources to their business associates at super-bonanza knock-down prices!"

"What nonsense - this is evidence of the lunacy, irrelevance and derangement of the Left."

From Nick Cohen to Comrade Hitchens, all respect the absolute prohibition upon the use of deceitful language to conceal unpalatable arguments.

Conspiracy Theorist

Noun

Konn-Spih-Ruh-Say Thee-Yoh-Risst

1. Deranged person asserting that Dick Cheney's desire to liberate Iraq was not motivated by his principled altruism and anti-totalitarianism, nor by his love of freedom, human rights, democracy or magical ponies, causing fascists to laugh in celebration.

"Surely when you hear about how the Americans are demanding that Iraq's natural resources be sold to their business associates at super-bonanza knock-down prices, you must suspect that might have been part of the plan all along?"

"Oooh, break out the tinfoil hats, lads - it looks like we've got a conspiracy theorist on our hands."

Alan Johnson

Person, Polymath

Ah-Lahn Jonn-Sun

Labour MP and Secretary of State for Health, Alan Johnson still finds time in his busy schedule to edit and contribute to Decent website Democratiya while denouncing the Academic/Media Complex.

Although he has been capped 18 times for Scotland, his footballing career suffered a serious setback in 2007 when he was kidnapped by Palestinian militants who held him hostage for almost four months.

He was freed after one of his captors, while surfing the internet, chanced upon examples of his eloquent, emotive prose and clips of his clinical finishing in the penalty box.

"Let it be known that Alan Johnson is a friend of the Palestinian people. Allah surely smiles upon a man who could score such a hat-trick against Rangers at Ibrox, especially during the Gascoine-Laudrup era."

George Galloway

Person, Spearhead of Modern Fascism

Jorj Gallow-Way

1. Pathetic figure of national derision, whose comical stylings and clowning pratfalls have made him a laughing stock.

Ludicrous Parliamentarian, whose every pronouncement is greeted with gales of uproarious mockery, as Decents shriek "Nurse, my sides!" and other such witticisms.

2. Sinister uber-Nazi, whose Pro-fascist advocacy is a terrible threat to the very fabric of Western Civilisation.

Saddam-loving leader of the Red-Brown Brotherhood, Galloway works to subvert the democratic process in the interests of fascists, for whose eventual victory he devotes his every breath. Advocate of the cause of Arab supremacy, into which he pours his malice, his cruelty and his will to dominate all life.

Subject of the Fifteen Years' Hate, an ongoing ritual whereby Decents are given free licence to curse, spit, shriek, scream, rend their garments and tear their hair in visceral rage at his image.

Saint Anthony of Good Faith

Historical Figure, Decent Martyr

British Prime Minister, 1997-2007

Heroic campaigner for justice, Saint Anthony of Good Faith struggled righteously for the traditional socialist goals of privatisation and war, before becoming the first Decent to be publicly martyred.

Barricaded inside 10 Downing Street, Saint Anthony was an almost powerless figure for most of his Premiership, struggling against an all-powerful elite of Bruschetta-munching Hampstead Liberals and pro-fascists to bring freedom, justice and anarchy to the Middle-East.

Despite the overwhelming forces arrayed against him, Saint Anthony somehow managed to liberate Iraq, loyally helping his ally President George W. Bush to dictate the rate at which the Iraqis would sell their natural resources to his business associates at super-bonanza knock-down prices.

Famous for his parables -

"I can apologise for bringing anarchy to the Middle-East, but I cannot apologise for removing a fascist dictator,"

"My actions may have contributed to an uncountable death-toll, but I did it in good faith,"

"I feel no shame for my complicity in the bombing campaign against Beirut, for truly, Terrorists Are Bad."

Facing an unstoppable tide of latte-sipping pro-fascists, Saint Anthony was taken from the houses of Parliament and crucified in 2007 - his last words, "Forgive them, Lord, for they know not that I am a pretty straight kind of guy," will outlast him, and his glorious legacy will be seen in the stable democracies that he helped establish.

Brian Haw-Haw

Person

Pro-Fascist Anti-War Campaigner

Smelly hippy and useful idiot, Brian Haw-Haw has broadcast his pro-fascist propaganda from his camp in Parliament Square for much of the last six years.

Like much of the anti-war Left, his failure to grasp the fact that Terrorists Are Bad has caused him to verbally attack Saint Anthony of Good Faith and to offend Decent Parliamentarians with his silly placards about dead Iraqis.

Beloved figure of latte-sipping, bruschetta-munching Hampstead Liberals, who congregate in snooty galleries to view his simplistic sloganeering, before gang-pissing on photographs of Iraqi Democrats and howling ululations for the Islamification of Britain, leaving Decent Observer journalists to seethe at their own frustrated impotence.

Hitler

Historical Figure

German dictator, 1889-Present

1. Chancellor of the Third Reich and notorious war criminal, Hitler was the architect of World War II and the Holocaust.

2. Perennial menace whose malevolent spirit infects all political figures opposed to the goals of Decency, to varying degrees.

The extent of Hitlerification is open to individual discretion and is reckoned by complex arithmetical formulas - Osama Bin Laden, for instance, rates at almost 2000 mega-Fuhrers (Click chart to enlarge).

3. Argumentative device whereby Hitler is invoked as a free-standing justification and moral blank cheque for bombing, most commonly expressed as The Lessons of History.

Also, the Do-You-Think-Hitler ploy, often used to discount humanitarian concerns about the bombing of military targets.

"Do-You-Think-Hitler worried about the rule of law when he decided to invade Poland?"

*Update - 14,479 others.

Johann Hari

Journalist, Judas

Litigious Independent journalist, cast out of the Party in 2007 for his despicable backstabbing of comrades.

A prick, the traitor Hari spent most of this decade professing loyalty while slyly working to undermine Decency with his shoddy journalism, fantastical fabrications and pretentious, attention-seeking exhibitionism in the pages of the mainstream press.

Comrades are warned that association with the Trotsky-fascist traitor will be viewed as collaboration, and shall be harshly punished.

"I've never liked that prancing great tit Johann Hari - he thinks he's so fucking clever, doesn't he?"

"Not only is Johann Hari a lying weasel now, he has always been a lying weasel. I've always despised the grandstanding, condescending, self-important little cock."

Winston Churchill

Historical Figure (1875-1964)

Prime Minister of Great Britain 1940-5, 1951-5

Visionary World War II leader and vocal critic of appeasement, who spent many years crying in the political wilderness about the imminent threat German re-armament posed to British business and military interests.

Churchill preached the doctrine of Total War against Nazi Germany, Italy and Japan, and was instrumental in the final defeat of European fascism and Japanese Imperialism.

Intellectual inspiration for modern-day anti-fascists and vocal critics of appeasement, who have spent many years crying in the political wilderness about the imminent threat that Islam, Dhimmification and the Caliphate pose to British liberties.

Modern anti-fascists preach the doctrine of Total War against Libya, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Lebanon, The Occupied Territories, Jordan, Pakistan, France, Jihadists and Ken Livingstone, and have been instrumental in safeguarding democracy by committing many fearless acts of keyboard heroism.

"Was Winston Churchill "extreme" in 1940?...

Your claim of "What you fail to understand is that your constant criticism of the Koran is pointless and gets you nowhere." smacks of people in 1938 wanting Churchill to shut up...

...It is 1933 and I am Winston Churchill." - Morgoth, regular Harry's Place commenter
