“This Union resolves…to commit to a struggle against fascism and the far-right, in a united front of students, workers, trade unions, and the wider labor movement, with the perspective of fighting the root cause of fascism—capitalism,” the document concludes.

Funny. My education in political philosophy treated Nietzsche as a liberal.

As I've noted before I read Machiavelli and Nietzsche during the summer after I turned 11 or 12 and thereby explaining why I'm screwed up

I agree about the spelling. I don't agree with Nietzsche, but he was brilliant, this is just more PC run amok.

Yeah. I think he was wrong about many things but he did tend to make you think.

I am fairly confident I will never learn how to spell Nietzsche without looking.
