Thinking of buying from overclockers? You may want to think again...

Default Thinking of buying from overclockers? You may want to think again...

Take a look at their forums. Search for posts from the owner of OC UK. If
you have ever ordered from them and are black, jewish or homosexual, or in
any way disapprove of hitlers policies or those of white supremacy groups,
you may possibly feel a little bit sick to the stomach for having funded
this company. I know I do. There are links direct to racist flash videos on
a neo-nazi white supremacy website used by the owner in his own threads to
support his views... a site which states:

"There is no national dignity without the people believing in their race and
nation above all else. No compromise over homosexuality. It should be made
illegal again and stiff penalties imposed on the "pink Mafia" now
infiltrating Society at all levels. Total opposition to Zionism and Israel
and all their supporters. "

I find this truly disgusting having ordered from them in the past, and being
opposed to neo-nazism in all forms, and feel terrible for having parted with
my cash to what is ostensibly a company with disgraceful views. Anybody else
have views on this?

My view is that this isn't the group to be discussing any of this. Perhaps
UCV might be,

Followups set appropriately.

Wrong forum and pure hearsay without supporting links.

Unworthy of further comment on both counts.

Come on, show us the real postings, where he uses the nazi site " in his own
threads to
support his views... ".

If everyone who agrees with the view that too many people come to this
country claiming asylum who are actually economic migrants is counted as a
nazi then you'll find the current government is guilty. As are the Sun, the
Mirror, the BBC, the Mail (especially the Mail)...

Come on, show us the "links direct to racist flash videos". The one you
mention uses racial stereotypes to make a point, but that's not the same
thing.

Come on, show us what you claim or admit that you're full of ****.

I would buy from the Ku Klux Klan if they were cheaper than anyone else. I
am a colour-blind bargain hunter.
