I apologize, I should have been more clear, I agree with you on the points you made about some of the reasons for this happening, and I also agree with you on that I do not see these people as "unredeemable". I was pointing out that many of which we also deal with in this current time do not fit into the category of "desperate people" being taken advantage of, but rather those who are pretty well off and insulated from reality. This is becoming popular in the suburbs and the well off rather than just the rural outliers. I do see the other angles, that is why I think we have to address the promotion and propaganda for what it is. If we can outlaw people inciting violence by screaming fire in a theater, we very well should be outlawing the promotion of hate fueled genocidal propaganda. There is no benefit to society by allowing Nazis to promote, recruit, organize and mobilize their efforts to control the government so they can inflict harm upon the citizens they do not deem " pure enough" for their tastes, only harm so it serves no purpose to allow something this harmful to continue. Considering we ban far less than Nazi Propaganda, I see no reason why it should be protected.TheIronRuler said:.Lil devils x said:.
You are correct, you do not see them here as I do. I have seen them marching through the streets and protesting at the court house here where I live. I have to listen to what people are saying standing in line at the market. I also have seen that many of those doing so live in these neighborhoods:

https://www.redfin.com/city/30856/TX/Heath/luxury-homes
https://www.zillow.com/mclendon-chisholm-tx/
When this happens in your neighborhood, you tend to know a bit more about the people involved. The people involved here are more likely to suffer from "affluenza" than poverty. They also often send their children to " pray away the gay camps" and only allow their children to associate with people of their own race and culture. I don't think many are as bad off as you seem to think they are. If these organizations were made up of the poor, they would not be as well funded as they currently are.
EDIT: It isn't just here either:

Wealthy racists are not a new thing btw, the south was founded by wealthy racist landowners. Not much has changed in that regard.
I know a little about the plantation system in the south and how the land-owning, slave-owning elite perpetuated this racial divide to justify their exploitation of the slaves and simultaneously take care of the unrest of the poor whites by directing it towards blacks, and away from their real masters. I can understand how the same is happening, which is why I've said before and I'll stress again - those people who are pushed to these ideology by circumstance can be saved, they can be redeemed, as long as the ringleaders are addressed. Clumping them all together, without any nuance to their situation, writes off many people whose minds are not broken beyond repaid and can be rehabilitated. The same way prisoners can be rehabilitated from their negative behaviors, some of those people can be redeemed and given a second chance.
I believe you, and I often try to argue not against you, but argue that you do not see the entire picture from your angle.
I got called a nazi apologist, even a supporter, in a different thread. I always doubt whether or not the people who attack me understand who I am.
Many of these promoting this now are directly linked to those who did these things during WW2. My neighbor growing up was a literal SS officer and everyone knew it. His son is just as racist as he was and idolizes his father. Look at the men in the OP, they are gray and balding and they knew what they were supporting here. We are still dealing with the descendants of the Nazis who fled to the US after WW2. They were able to pick up life in the US after the war because there were still plenty of communities within the US that supported them. My neighbor was not the only one here walking around in his SS uniform handing down his beliefs to his children. Beliefs and ideology like this are often handed down and indoctrinated into the communities, people are taught these things and they are frequently handed down like other religious beliefs. It is not always a separated movement.TheIronRuler said:.Saelune said:.I am personally attacked. Your opinion on them is a bad one.
I have learned to bite my tongue, even if you don't realize that. But I have far more warnings that I deserve to have.
It was a picture of a mass grave of Nazi victims. Nazis have lost any right to exist, due to their actions in the 1940's. They are terrorists, plain and simple.
Reason is thinking that the most villianous group in mdern history is villanous. They literally are the standard for 'evil fascist organization'. When people make fiction and want you to know who the bad guys are, they make them some form of Nazi.

I do not attribute the actions of the Germans on my people and the peoples of the world to the detached neo-nazis that parrot their beliefs in your country. The comparisons are in bad taste, as I have repeatedly told you before. Treat them with respect to their beliefs and actions. They have done, plan to do, and dream of doing awful and horrible things. Some of them are the very same things they idolize the German Nazis for doing (that young white man, who decided to attack a synagogue during Passover dinner, killing a women and injuring 3 others). It should be attributed to the movement, not the actions of those they idolize, some 80 years ago.
I will. I know he's banned now, but I know for a fact that members of far-right groups go on propaganda missions on the internet where, among other things, they pretend to be members of some minority group.

Pass a law that requires all promoters of nazi ideology to put a label on everything related to it, with pictures of people in concentration camps, saying "this ideology may lead to the wanton murder of millions of people".
It's a joke, though. Don't take this seriously, Saelune.

I do not advocate doing nothing. You've clearly demonstrated you don't read my posts. I do not share your opinions, however I do not defend nazis. I defend people you love to demonize, some of which can be returned to normalcy. You can't distinguish the difference between opinions other than your own.

The people I 'demonize' are Nazis. I 'demonize' them because I am stating facts about them, and the facts are Nazis are like demons, evil, murderous bigoted monsters. If you cant understand that, that's your failing.
If you want me to not think you're just like all the others who try to condemn me, maybe stop repeating their tired lines. If opposing genocide is wrong, then I dont want to be right.

Although the numbers will never be truly clear, there were a lot of Nazi sympathizers in the United States. Coupled with many Americans thinking that World War 2 and our allies falling were not our problem [https://exhibitions.ushmm.org/americans-and-the-holocaust/us-public-opinion-world-war-II-1939-1941], not to mention the strong anti-semitism movement in America, it was highly fertile ground.Lil devils x said:Many of these promoting this now are directly linked to those who did these things during WW2.
