Those who want lawyers, bureaucrats and academics to rule are the opposite of nationalists. Nationalists believe that men are united by a common heritage and by blood ties, not by words and documents. Lawyers, bureaucrats and academics believe that the only thing that makes one a citizen of a country is words. Every wordist says that his philosophy will unite all mankind into one huge, loving community. But in the real world, different kinds of wordists are every bit as divided as nationalists are, and infinitely more vicious.
Communism is a form of wordism.
Communism is supposed to unite all mankind into a single, loving unit. The Communist form of wordism has killed over a hundred million people this century. All wordists claim they love everybody and that their words unite everybody. Then they proceed to kill real people by the millions, all in the name of their words. Every wordist claims that his particular words will unite all mankind.
