by William Sullivan, American Thinker:

In his excellent podcast series, “Cold War: Prelude to the Present,” Bill Whittle opens the series by describing the Berlin Wall as “not only a wall between East and West Berlin.”  He continues:

It was the division of humanity into two different camps…

On one side of the wall, the Eastern side, were the collectivists, who believed that society takes precedent over the person.  This collectivism was advertised as new and scientific, but the fact is that collectivism has been the default position of humanity since humanity began.
