Topic: Totalitarianism
The Pope calls for a single global economy:

Globalism is also the overarching goal of Communism. They say that for Communism to really work, it has to be global.
Speaking of Totalitarianism, Al Gore has recently compared the fight for Global Warming theory acceptance to World War II (with himself in the role of Winston Churchill). Some commentators think that Gore also was making a veiled identification of Global Warming Deniers with Nazis:

In another speech, Gore said, "What is being tested is the proposition of whether or not the combination of an opposable thumb and a neocortex is a viable construct on this planet." In other words, acceptance of Global Warming totalitarianism shows that man is evolving, whereas Global Warming deniers are un-evolved. Listen to his speech:

A Slate writer notes that Churchill warned, "We must also be careful that a pretext is not made of war needs to introduce far-reaching social or political changes by a side-wind," i.e., beware of those who would introduce extreme measures in a time of emergency. Ignoring Churchill's plain meaning, Gore remarked, "I'm tired of this right-wing side-wind." Those who would use Global Warming to introduce totalitarian measures are actually Gore and the Left Wing.
