You might like "Neitzsche and the Nazis" by Stephen Hicks. You can watch it on Netflix.

Ah nietzsche...
An atheist who tried to be intellectually honest... Drove him insane. That's the only interpretation that ever made any sense to me.

I find this interesting, as I used to be a Benedictine, and we know that Hitler was schooled in a Benedictine school, af least partially. I find it facinating how Hitler's government follows the structure of the Rule of Saint Benedict.

@sambackues I myself studied for a time under the Dominicans, who were a bit more doctrinal and not quite as dictatorial as the Benedictines. As an order, they represent the last trace of established pre-Council Of Trent Catholicism, but the rule of Papal Infallibility greatly limited their ability to correct Pelagian errors in other orders. Many sedevacantists can be traced back to the Dominicans and their Augustinian tendencies, and that was my path away from Rome.

@sambackues (cont.) I've always been taken a bit aback at how medieval Roman teachings have tended towards Fascism. I would tend to argue that Mussolini was more of a direct beneficiary of Benedictine errors, but Hitler's brand of corporatism definitely took some cues from the same source.
I've generally been opposed to permanent monastic vows, though I am not fully opposed to temporary monastic living as a sabbatical from the stresses of worldly life.
