#1 Let me borrow from something I posted in another thread on another of my favorite blogs:

Grass, at age 17, joined the SS, a fanatical pagan anti-Semitic organization dedicated to nationalistic socialism (what do you think "Nazi" stands for?) which, among other things, committed atrocities on an industrial scale.

After the war, he transferred his allegiance to communism, a fanatical atheistic, anti-Semitic ideology which, among other things, committed atrocities on an industrial scale (and still does in China and North Korea and Cuba). Communism collapsed, but Grass continues to be an adherent to the anti-globalist position.

After 9/11, he has been openly supportive of al-Qaida, a fanatical anti-Semitic organization which, among other things, seeks to commit atrocities on an industrial scale.

Does anyone else see a pattern here?

#2 Stick with Ernst Junger. For Junger, National Socialism was too soft, pointlessly racist, and shallow.
