The National Socialists were anti-capitalist, advocated state ownership of industry, and considered themselves to be socialist. I'd be interested to hear why you think they were mistaken. > > No-one could argue Fascism was left-wing in smart company.

Fascism was certainly a radical philosophy intent on transforming society. Please correct me if I'm wrong but all I'm able to understand of your position is: Fascist = bad guy Socialist = good guy --- Neither a man nor a crowd nor a nation can be trusted to act humanely or to think sanely under the influence of a great fear. -Bertrand Russell, philosopher, mathematician, author, Nobel laureate (1872-1970) _______________________________________________ OSX-Nutters mailing list | [email protected] http://lists.tit-wank.com/mailman/listinfo/osx-nutters List hosted at http://cat5.org/
