Whether the current regime is more like Stalin, Lenin, Hitler, Mao, Mussolini, Castro or Pol Pot, I think misses the point.

The point is that it has elements of all of those regimes and also some features that are entirely its own.

As someone once said (Mark Twain? not sure) “History doesn’t repeat itself, it rhymes.

Yep. I find it disgusting that some of the Axelrod conservatives think it's okay to stand by and allow Bambi four more years to finish his work.

Well, Hitler did give us the autobahn, and the Volkswagen. /sarcasm.
