...THE OMINOUS PARALLELS, by Leonard Peikoff... most probably the most important book written in modern times. Buy it... read it... study it.

Darrell, the poor little ignoramus that prompted your response is a good enough example of an expanding phenomenon; twits filled with illusions in place of any real knowledge or understanding. Believe it was Sowell who refers to them as "confident incompetents". I'd guess they are a reflection of a government-run schooling system, largely owned at the top by leftist ideologues. Doesn't help that they are organized precisely along the lines of pre-fall Soviet agricultural collectives.

I endorse your recommendation of Peikoff's book. Paul Johnson's MODERN TIMES adds insights. Interesting how much hidden cross fertilization there was between Communists and Nazis
