The Connection Between June and Totalitarianism
Gentile was a well established philosopher before the Mussolini government came to power. He just doesn't seem to see that this particular barrel chested dictator might have been something of a charlatan, he says. Gentile's work makes it all the more puzzling or the more bewildering when reading his work is that he's such a fan of Bonito Mussolini. We call that psychic disavowal. Yeah. So that's what I was talking about and in some ways what you get presented very clearly vividly in June is the idea of a political leader who is who is something more than human.
