CB: Not mistaken, but the Russian personality type produced something that was the opposite of anti-Semitism , too: socialist revolution. What do you make of the fact that this Russian personality type was en masse in a population that carried out the main socialist revolution in history ? What in French, English, German, American personality types prevented those masses from having a revolution to join the Russians ?

After Doug's show yesterday with the Joel Schalit Punk Planet guy I was again reminded of whether the Anglo-American revulsion of all things Marxian is part and parcel of an anti-semitism that dares not speak its name.
