Chip, your pedantic taxonomy of theories of fascism is interestingly lacking in marxists, aside from being essentially apolitical. Amazingly, you never mention classes or anticommunism (aside from tame pomo Fritzsche) . You bring up your pet theory of clerical fascism again and again as if it were a big deal but fail to mention that it's only an epiphenomenon where the church jumps on the fascist bandwagon. As always, you prefer to sidestep anything remotely resembling a political and class analysis and go for your millennialist routine, pretending that fascism is rooted in the bible. Why don't you come over here and tell the grey wolves that? You mentioned Dave Renton, where's his marxist theory of fascism in your sanitized taxonomy? It's all pointless, pedantic, clueless mystification. At least I hope it's pointless. Sometimes I have my doubts.
