Is Fascism Right For You?

A future president, in 1937:

...Kennedy, who was touring with his friend Lem Billings, wrote in his diary: “I have come to the conclusion that fascism is right for Germany and Italy. What are the evils of fascism compared to communism?” Billings later recalled that Kennedy was “completely consumed by his interest for the Hitler movement” during their trip.

Compare them with care.
Both are beasts in the night,
and neither one is right.
