Out of curiosity is this link advocating violance against the Church of Scientology? I'm from the States and not too familiar with European slang.

Good question.

I love the V for Vendetta poster, and the demonstration technique though.

Well, a 'fag' as I know it means a male homosexual, and it's meant as a derogatory term, but it doesn't quite make sense in this context, to call th people you're trying to have agree with you an insulting term.

Cigarette in London, afaik.

But google -> London fag -> Digg Link -> more info :

(so I think "faq" here is a sort of "private circle joke", with members of the mentioned "crew" calling themselves fag for some provocative purpose -
might be a reference to consumerism as in "we know society labels us consumable")
(educated guess)

Well frankly that's stupid, it's like that small family cult of so called Christian nuts that Louie Therroux interviewed, they made protest on street corners calling everyone fags, including their countries own soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan. Wankers.

I realise this is kind of a switcher-oo but it's stupid, I hate language abuse when it's so crass

Can understand - in my understanding, though, Brit culture (fascinating to me) is paradoxical in that way.
They have a cult of "daytime politeness" and "nighttime wilderness" similar to Switzerland - and "clans" and dress codes
are quite common.

I love the concept of an image based BB that said, and their picture had quite an impact.

Human madness and creativity have no limits, but this goes both ways - from "stupid kids" to flying blokes.

It's because of kids like this, namely, that questions about self esteem and communication are that interesting to me.
And it is because channeled madness is wonderful that I like Ozone Asylum that much

(about the kids, I must admit, also, that the UK is in trouble lately - beginning of last year I was in London and Manchester for a brief trip,
and I heard accounts of ugly - I mean, ugly things : Europe is going through problems with violent youth, and it is very strange
because most countries here have a very steady economy - we don't face problems like the black american crisis beginning of the 90's,
but kids act "as if" - rapes, protests, burnt cars (!!) - in my town, 200'000 inhabitants (!!!)).

All this perpetrated by kids.
