Please... What an absurd response to this article. I didn't read Ferguson's piece as the people of the US are as bad as the people of the USSR. I also didn't read it as the governments are on the same level.
I would summarize that when you are fighting something be careful that you don't become what you hate. I think the US government has been on that path since the cold war.
All that said, I haven't read Goldberg response yet.

Goldberg is a waste of time. No one cares about his opinions. He has zero demand in the marketplace for pundits.

I read "Liberal Fascism: The Secret History of the American Left" by him many years ago. Was interesting but I was in a very different place with my world view.
