Fascists were the only ones that effectively pushed against Marxists in the last 100 years. Until US decided to interviene.

It appears more and more that it is indeed becoming the only alternative to Marxism.

Very much the position I hold but I think we're coming very close now to that being the case.

Look how put together (clothes-wise) he is. Style never goes out of fashion.

Waugh was a strange one. Fascists exist on the right and the left. What they have in common is extremism.

Well it was and now all of Western Civilisation is infected with neo-Marxism. Evelyn Waugh should have been more vocally supportive of the Axis powers instead of reactionary Conservatism.

Waugh signed up to fight the Nazis while they were in alliance with the Soviets. He was dismayed when the Soviets switched sides in 41 because of their record of violent repression. He was never a fascist.

方案很多，问题是你有没有像元首一样的勇气去开辟一条属于自己的路，答案很简单--没有。所以，想摆脱马克思主义者的奴役，只有一个方案：用“我的奋斗”取代圣经，用国家社会主义取代民主议会制。
