Wei,
Where does the British writer Wyndham Lewis "fully endorse" fascism?   Lewis
explicitly states that he prefers the "muddle" of democracy; if memory
serves (it has been almost 15 years since I read his novels, criticism, and
polemical works) he makes this statement in The Art of Being Ruled.  His
1939 book, The Hitler Cult, is hardly an endorsement of fascism.
