“To place Russian communism on the same moral level with Nazi fascism, because both are totalitarian, is, at best, superficial, in the worse case it is fascism. He who insists on this equality may be a democrat; in truth and in his heart, he is already a fascist, and will surely fight fascism with insincerity and appearance, but with complete hatred only communism.” — Thomas Mann
The only thing a liberal can be trusted to do is bear water and sharpen knives for fascists; so history shows us, so tomorrow will too.
