[edit] Myself
Before creating this account, I created/modified some entries from 216.31.14.47 on Mar 19, 2004. As of today, I have made over 150 edits, and rank #Next_to_Last on Wikipedia:List of Wikipedians by number of edits.
I'm a filthy American classical liberal. As such, I don't have a dog in many left-right fights, so I am able to approach them very NPOVly.
I spellz gud, an' mah grammer is exalunt, so sumtimes Ah lak to fix broken sh... stuff.

[edit] Older contributions
- Nazism and socialism - uh, maybe not. It seems that every time I add any mention of Austrian theory (Mises and Hayek), some Marxist removes it. Most recently, this guy. Apparently, "free speech for me but not for thee" is their watchword. And by Marxist, I mean the real, hardcore Marx-followers who think that if it ain't described by Marx, it ain't socialism. Funny thing, though: Marx spent most of his time critiquing capitalism and expended very little ink describing socialism.
- Nazism in relation to other concepts - it happened again. This time, Cberlet has decided to move it to Fascism and ideology because apparently we must not let people know that Nazism is but one possible outcome of socialism.
There is a recurring fallacy used by the Marxists: Nazism violates core tenets of Marxism, therefore Nazism cannot be socialism. This relies on a fallacy of composition. Marx was neither the first nor the last socialist theorist; he didn't even coin the term. In truth, all Marxism is socialism, but not all socialism is Marxism. Cberlet's error is different: it is to believe that Nazism and fascism are the same (funny, though, that his fellow-travellers will not allow the same to be said of Leninism, Stalinism, Maoism, etc., WRT socialism). They aren't, though there are many similarities. I think the point of moving my comments was to make sure that anyone looking in Wiki for the relationship between Nazism and socialism didn't find them because they were lost in a side discussion about fascism, but I am willing to let it go for now because Cberlet seems to have integrity and appears genuinely interested in creating a useful discussion about fascism.
