@Tim_Eagon Maybe a bit, but the personality cult thing is a feature of communist governments too and it seems like there's always a question of whether it will outlast Mao or Stalin; I'm old enough to remember it with Casto and Kim Jong-il.I think it's fascism's preoccupation with operatic, open war, and they keep picking fights until they lose. Whereas constantly guarding against wrongthink creates a more sustainable model of violence. "War" is exhausting. "Struggle" is survival.
