Ah yes, What Is To be Done? Second only to Mein Kampf in terms of crazed, nonsensical ravings. I got to read both of them in a class called "The Philosophic Roots of European fascism." Awesome class. The professor was basically a right-leaning libertarian. The class basically consisted of reading things like Hegel, Marx, Lenin and Hitler for homework and then going to class and having the professor rip their ideas to shreds. It was glorious. Because of the class I can now destroy anyone who tries to ague that Fascism is on the right side of the political spectrum (and therefore ideologically closer to the Republican party than the Dumbocraps). In short, Fascism was Communism without any ambitions to spark a global workers revolution.

I've always contended that Marxism, communism, fascism and socialism should be a required class in high school.

Students should be taught what they are, how they operate, how to identify them and the human suffering they cause.

Of course this won't be taught in public schools. Otherwise students could identify all the abhorent forms of left wing "isms" currently existing in America.
