That should read; In the essay in Harvard Magazine, Mr. Ignatiev says he always expected "bewilderment" at his views from "people who still think."
Actually, the traitor's comment--let us apply his own term, whether or not we could have him indicted;--the traitor's comment quoted is very interesting. Even most Communists accept that race is biological. They just believe that biology can be manipulated by environment--the Lamarckian version of evolution. The Nazis were the branch of Socialism which played with the idea that race was something other than biology. Ultimately, because the German population was actually less homogeneous than many of its neighbors, they adopted a mystical view of "race," which reduced to its clear implications, defined the new "race" on ideological grounds. To be a true member of Hitler's "Master Race," you have to share the National Socialist vision. They also, of course, accepted by implication much of the Lamarckian psuedo-science, implicit in Socialism. (See The Lies Of Socialism.)
Of course the traitor is a wacko fanatic. But as I suggested in #s 82, 87 & 89, there is evil method in his apparent lunacy. This should not just be laughed off! He is not the only "Professor" on a prominent American campus promoting this refinement of the hatemongers' art.
