Re: I never said that all dictators are Marxists...

I never said "Nazism is now a movement confined to the outer fringes of politics". The author of the article I linked at the top of the thread, Johann Hari, said it. Do try to keep up. He happens to be correct.

As a rule and matter of style, when I quote from an article or from someone else's post, I put the text in italics as a way to show the words are not my own. It makes it a lot easier to differentiate between other people's words and my own.

As for: But, can you name one Marxist/communist nation that isn't a dictatorship? No I can't. That you think I would try, is a commentary on your world-view.

No, it just shows that the original author's point is correct. Only kooks like the Skinheads and neo-Nazis try to defend the horrors of Nazi ideology. The sad fact that is that there are still quite a few people who'll defend the equally terrible and destructive ideology of communism and Marxism. That says more about their world view than my own.
