In retrospect, we shouldn’t be surprised by Oliver Stone’s comments on Hitler, the Holocaust and the “Jewish domination of the media” since: (1) He is batshit crazy. (2) Like Hugo Chavez, the subject of the director’s recent fawning documentary, Oliver Stone has a long history of relying on fascist methodology to justify ostensibly Leftist causes.

Back in 1992, NYT Magazine writer John Taylor captured this perfectly:

Oliver Stone, yet another aficionado of Big Lie theorizing, has an equally paranoid view of American society. “The vandals are at the gate…we have a fascist security state running this country…but it is so subtle nobody noticed,” Stone told the Los Angeles Times in 1989.

But Stone is utterly oblivious of the extent to which a fascistic mentality permeates ‘JFK.’ It was Goebbels, Hitler’s minister of propaganda, who once said that truth had to be placed in the service of the Aryan myth. As Goebbels did when it suited him, Stone used some facts selectively and invented others in order, like Goebbels, to create what (Stone) has called, in an echo of Goebbels, a ‘counter-myth.’ “
