  1. Where do Marx or Lenin promote this idea of a superior race? The idea of building Socialism in one country was only theorize by Bukharin in 1928 and rejected by Trotsky with Lenin being already dead. Hitler came to power in 1933 with help of President General Hindenburg and the Conservative Capitalist parties. The Communist and Social Democtats represented the industrial workers while the Nazi found followers among the middles class being pauperised by the capitalist system. Stalin's basis was in a rising group of privileged officials while Hitler's Party was created to save the same social class of people being crushed between capital and labor. This is why you see so many similarities between the two. The Russian Oct revolution began with votes first among the bolshevik leaders then the St Petersburg Soviets. All power to the Soviets was the Bolshevik slogan. Hitler's was give me the power of dictatorship from the Reichstag after the fire denying all the communist and some Social Democrats their seats. Hitler tried and failed to get a conviction of the Communist leaders for the fire. Hitler got only votes of the capitalist parties for him and for his dictatorship. He came to power based upon thuggery, lies and deceit. Despite all the talk of free markets you see that the capitalist world adopted Keynes ideas. The only difference between Keynes and the neoliberals is how much should be left in private hands and how much should be managed by the state in the interest of other investors like those who own the central banks national debt. Stalin and his leading gangsters did not see the real threat that Hitler and fascism posed. Stalin was hoping to find liberal allies to save him and his regime. He feared the Spanish revolution and Trotsky more than Hitler. Instead the Stalinist originally thought Hitler was just leading another group of opportunistic politicians. They called the Social Democrats Social Fascists. Now the word fascist has become little more than a swear word.
