Islam also preaches a kind of egalitarianism. But the fact of the matter is,
they all also worship a "King." Their view of the universe is bound to a kind of
spiritual despotism. And that very thing poisons the well of egalitarianism.

No one cares what Fascists think. Fascism belongs to the dustbin of history.
Hitler was a freak.
