Collectivism's Evil Twins

John Prescott really thought he had the daily Mail on the ropes re the Milliband furore when he dredged up an old cutting from the 1930's showing the paper defending Hitler and Fascism.But what the Left suffers historical amnesia over is the Nazi Soviet pact which saw the Fascists and Communists in bed together and which cosy arrangement was only ended when Hitler reneged on the deal.So we see these two collectivist creeds are two peas in the same pod -except that Communism killed many more people and went on a lot longer.Here we come to the heart of the hypocrisy and double standards of all this.Whilst it is still considered respectable to defend academic Marxism and the teaching therof as Tony Benn was doing today,appropriately some would say, on the BBC and which ideology led directly to the mass murder of a hundred million people under Communism, it would be considered a moral outrage to try and defend Fascism and its tenets and no leader of the conservative party would hold that position if it were know that his father taught Fascism in a university.The Freedom Party rejects all variants of collectivism be they communism or fascism as equally immoral and abhorrent and evil and holds that they should be treated as two horns on the same ugly goat of collectivism
