In the article a parallel is drawn between the ostensible fascist promotion of the state over the individual and Plato&#x27;s implication that the state is a better subject to understand justice than the individual.<p>Notice that Nazi Germany would be an example of the &quot;fevered state&quot;, as opposed to the healthy, moderate state, that necessitates a &quot;guardian class&quot; in the first place.
