The Anti-Fascism Wolf in Sheeps Clothing


By Curt Maynard

I’ll be darned if Sean Penn didn’t say something the other night on CNN’s Larry King Live that made a great deal of sense. As a rule Mr. Penn and I don’t see eye to eye on many things, but I couldn’t help but be pleasantly surprised to see Penn, the son of a Jewish father and Irish Catholic mother catch Larry King momentarily off guard when he quoted the old Kingfish Huey Long. Penn said, “Well, in 1932 Huey Long said something very interesting. It was, 'Fascism will come to America, but likely under another name, perhaps anti-fascism.'” The look on King’s face was priceless, for a moment he was speechless, he finally managed a few words just before going to a commercial break, “We'll dwell on that for a minute,” he said with a perplexed look on his face.

Of course King never returned to that particular comment, nope, something like that hits way too close to home. For the better part of fifty years Larry King [born Lawrence Harvey Zeiger] has done his absolute best to convince Americans that “anti-Fascism,” is the personification of the greatest American ideal, that as the polar opposite of fascism, it must always be good, whereas fascism is always bad, and should forever be equated with Hitler, the Nazi’s and of course the holocaust. And in one unguarded moment, this half-Jewish co-ethnic of King’s goes and gives the whole thing away, on national television, honestly noting that there isn’t a dimes worth of difference between two types of totalitarianism, even if the current perpetrator may have once been it’s victim.
