If I remember correctly, the Nazi party started with a membership of seven (Hitler was party member 3). All it takes for a slide into the abyss is a cataclismic economic failure.

Is Europe really heading for a new Dark Age, with its Nazi past coming back to haunt it?

Isn't it interesting how the left tries to paint the right withe the National Socialists Workers Party (Nazi) an ultra LEFT WING PARTY paintbrush?

Just in case you can't tell, Martin Jacques is a sad little crypto-trot. He looks exactly as you would expect (little trot beard, round little trot glasses, dark shirts, you name it).

What is the difference between a racist Nazism that consumes certain colors and creeds, and a leftist Marxism that consumes all colors and all creeds????

Scare tactics. This is what happens when the left sees themselves losing power.

Fo what it's worth, Fox News described Le Pen as a "Far Leftist".

The author accepts without question the idea that fascism is a phenomenon of the right rather than a phenomenon of the left.

Among other likely absurditites in the article is this statement:

'Who, in 1928, with a Europe returning to prosperity…could have predicted that only five years away Germany would be plunged into the most criminal dictatorship of the century?

First, it was easily predictable. Germany was in a state of economic and political chaos well into the 20s following WW1, which is precisely why Hitler was able to gain power. Second, Stalin's USSR was almost certainly the most criminal dictatorship of the century, overriding even Hitler's slaughter.
