I've been watching the "Hate Thy Neighbor" series recently, and some common threads I am noticing among the individuals involved in hate groups include: - They rarely admit to being racist, usually strongly arguing that they are specifically not racist - Most of them have very strong preferences about the correct terminology to use in referring to them, as if their niche hate label of choice helps them avoid the stigmatization of the more common hate labels most of society finds unacceptable. Many of them really sound like career politicians the way they try to spin their position as not condoning hate or violence, ignore all evidence to the contrary, and quibble over which hate labels they prefer. So yes, very often what a group is not willing to oppose can be very telling about their true position, which is often never admitted to in any kind of straightforward manner.
