"Neo-Nazi" is not anywhere close to the same category as "skeptical on mass immigration".
Skeptical on mass immigration represents a reasonable political position that is commonly accepted (as shown by how many Republicans with that position as part of their platform in the US).
Neo-Nazi represents a fetishism for Nazism, Fascism, and the idea that mass murder might be acceptable.
- vetinari 9y agoIn todays climate, everyone who is not radical left is being called a Nazi. Ben Shapiro has been called a Nazi.
- AgentME 9y agoThis article is about the DailyStormer. They proudly called themselves nazis.
- AFNobody 9y agoYou are arguing Weev, the Daily Stormer, and the people who call themselves Neo Nazis ... are not? Do you have any proof their proclamation they are neo nazis is a lie? You are aware it is literally named after a Nazi tabloid: The Daily Stormer is named for the Nazi tabloid Der Stürmer, known for its antisemitic caricatures. This 1934 billboard for Der Stürmer reads "With Der Stürmer against Judea. The Jews are our misfortune". Yes?
- vetinari 9y agoPlease read the comments upthread. Meanwhile, we moved away from Daily Stormer to Popper, calling people names for various reasons, including Nazi for immigration skeptics. The discussion in this thread is not limited to Daily Stormer anymore, but revolves around radical left calling anyone not having 100% identical opinion Nazis. Including Ben Shapiro, who is a guy that "wears a funny hat".
