what's interesting about this article is that campos calls churchill a fascist.
not a communist.
the truth of the matter is, churchill's aligned with the communists.
the truth of the matter is, the communist left has taken on some of fascism, since the 1960s when german authors of the 1920s-60s were required reading on campi.
this may be a matter of a communist calling a peer a fascist in order to get rid of him.
From Answers.com:
1. Communism
a. A system of government in which the state plans and controls the economy and a single, often authoritarian party holds power, claiming to make progress toward a higher social order in which all goods are equally shared by the people.
b. The Marxist-Leninist version of Communist doctrine that advocates the overthrow of capitalism by the revolution of the proletariat.
2.Fascism
a. A system of government marked by centralization of authority under a dictator, stringent socioeconomic controls, suppression of the opposition through terror and censorship, and typically a policy of belligerent nationalism and racism.
b. A political philosophy or movement based on or advocating such a system of government.
You know I often wondered, but never compared definitions, they are basically the same, and I think the "suppression of opposition through terror..." also fits the Commies.
It is merely the imagry that the left goes for when they refer to the right wing as fascist...there is no difference, or maybe as much as the difference between a tortoise and a sea turtle: they look an awful lot alike, but one swims while the other walks.
The good Prof is definitely a Commie.
