Academics or Agitprop Artists?

In late 2012, the academics Øystein Sørensen, Bernt Hagtvet and Bjørn Arne Steine, among others, published a work in Norway called Høyreekstremisme. Ideer og bevegelser i Europa (Right-wing extremism. Ideas and Movements in Europe) I figure prominently in this book, which in my view symbolizes the decay and intellectual dishonesty in modern academia.
Co-editors Bernt Hagtvet and Øystein Sørensen, both of them professors at the University of Oslo, suggest that my ideology is anti-democratic and dangerous and will lead to oppressive and authoritarian societies. It is unclear how this could be the case, since I want to move power away from unelected supranational organizations such as the EU, and back to the people, and reduce state interference in the lives of individual citizens. I must be the first alleged Fascist in history who wants less state power over the lives of individual citizens.
The chapter written by Vidar Enebakk on Fjordmans radicalization is particularly incompetent and ridiculously politicized. For example, he refers totally uncritically to the report Fear, Inc. The Roots of the Islamophobia Network in America from 2011, which was published by the left-wing organization The Center for American Progress, with several Muslim collaborators.
This report was clearly intended to smear people in North America and other Western countries who oppose Islamization and sharia law in any significant way. It also tied Breiviks terror attacks directly to the emergence of so-called organized Islamophobia.
...
Yet instead of applauding me for doing this, Enebakk responded by accusing me of engaging in shady and possibly illegal activities. Clearly, this is a person who is not interested in honest debate.
Vidar Enebakk is engaged in systematic character assassination, not research. His obsessive preoccupation with me gives Mr. Enebakk a profile resembling that of a cyber-stalker a bit like Anders Behring Breivik once was.
He is a living symbol of the decline of modern academia.
