Buckley, Jr. mentions fascism thrice and totalitarianism once in a way that makes it clear that he opposes fascism and totalitarianism and after he mentions Nazism in the same oppositional manner multiple times, Gore Vidal described William F. Buckley, Jr. as a " sort of pro or crypto-Nazi", and would write in an essay published in Esquire in 1969, "I had not intended to use the phrase "pro crypto Nazi."

Cryptocracy
The shadow government (cryptocracy, secret government, or invisible government) is a family of theories based on the notion that real and actual political power resides not only with publicly elected representatives but with private individuals who are exercising power behind the scenes, beyond the scrutiny of democratic institutions. According to this belief, the official elected government is subservient to the shadow government, which is the true executive power. Some of the groups proposed by these theories as constituting the shadow government include central banks, Freemasons, intelligence agencies, think tanks, organized Jewry, the Vatican, Jesuits, or Catholics in general, as well as secret societies, moneyed interests, and globalist elites and supranational organizations who seek to manipulate policy in their own interest or in order to serve a larger agenda that is hidden from the general public. History Literature on the subject postulates the existence of a se ...
