He didn’t, he has studied the Nazi regime extensively as well. It doesn’t come up as much in political discussions because it isn’t as relevant as the totalitarianism of the Soviet Union in the current climate. It’s talked about plenty in his classroom lectures, visit his YouTube

When I told my father I was bored, he asked: 'Are the characters in Stendhal's The Red and the Black true studies in character or archetypes of a society in flux?' I replied I did not know. 'You're not bored then, my girl: you're ignorant.' I was 14 at the time. Top parenting
