"As a theory of fascism, Male Fantasies sets forth the jarring - and ultimately horrifying - proposition that the fascist is not doing 'something else', doing what he wants to do. Theweleit insists that we see and not ‘read’ violence. He forces us to acknowledge that these acts of fascist terror spring from irreducible human desire.' -- Barbara Ehrenreich in Male Fantasies (1977) by Klaus Theweleit
