How was Jonah’s book?

Quite informative. It makes the connections between fascism, communism, and socialism that we've all known has been there but that modern society has been brainwashed into believing doesn't exist. Mussolini, for example, was a big dog in the Italian socialist party long before he was fascist. His dad read Das Kapital to him when he was a boy for heaven's sakes. Similarly, the Nazi party was in no way an extreme right wing organization. The idea that an extreme rightist organization would believe in nationalizing industries is crazy anyway. Extreme rightism manifests most likely as anarchism, not statism (which is the extreme of the left). The Nazi party was hard leftist from day one, even the Nazis themselves believed that. In any case, I highly recommend "Liberal Fascism".

The Dresden books just get better as they go. It's a fun ride.

I keep looking at the audio version of his book.

Have you read any of his new series yet - The Codex Files (I think)?
