This thread keeps getting better and better. If you have the time, Mussolini himself will tell you this is wrong: http://www.worldfuturefund.org/wffmaster/Reading/Germany/mussolini.htm In any case: Why is it that people need little compartments where to place their ideas and views? "this is like that," "a is a form of b," etc etc. It doesn't make for very high level discussion. It also helps conveniently confuse things: Right now in America, it is enough to wave the flag, yell "freedom" and talk about democracy for people to believe they live in the best possible democratic republic. Never mind that the election system is horribly broken, that the bottom line is that the party with the most money and corporate connections wins, and that there's no way or hope for third parties to have any chance at governing in any way. Sorry for the tangent. Now let's keep putting our ideas in little boxes and line them up neatly in shelves so we can grab them easily when talking politics.
