Considering that much of Burroughs' writing was under the influence of some of the heaviest drugs known to mankind and consequently quite incoherent and catering to a certain kind of audience, I cannot see the analogy with Hitler.

I have not read any Burroughs, but I quite admired the film "Naked Lunch".

in the same sense hitler was a great politician

hitler and his non-popular-vote-winning coalition took the terrorist incident against the Reichstag and turned into a severe curtailment of civil liberties and a decade-long military romp through half the world until he ran smack into a wall put up by the new, burgeoning superpowers who eventually crushed him.

but don't tell the story to the chinese. -g/ng-
