:Bottmline: Marx called religion the opiate of the masses; while Hitler and Mussolini may have been accommodating toward the church officials and believers, unlike Lenin and Stain who were officially hostile toward it and them, it only speaks of socialist leaders, and not "the masses" the disdainful term socialists use toward ordinary people. My point being, making a distinction between socialist, communist, or fascist leaders who implement the program, and the unfortunate souls caught up in a single party state.

:I'm well aware of your confusion. Might I suggest, the problem really lies with the amorphous definitions of "left" and "right", which IMO are grossly faulty, and trying to fit a square peg into a round hole just doesn't work. To begin with, the Left-Right Spectrum Theory is a leftist construct, so let's just abandon it there.
