Fascism, Communism and Socialism: Not A Dime's Worth of Difference

Sep 16, 2019

My guest today is L.K. Samuels, author of the new book, "Killing History: The False Left-Right Political Spectrum". Mr Samuels details the many similarities and ties between socialism, fascism, and communism. Have you ever wondered why the conventional "left-right political spectrum" is so nonsensical? Why would communism and fascism be on opposite ends when they're so very similar? My guest discusses the many historical parallels between these authoritarian and brutal philosophies, including the fascistic beginnings of Antifa and how modern US political candidates want their own version of national socialism.  Find his books here: Follow me here: Follow me on Twitter @buckrebel Donate to the show here:
