neither has any moral claims/
Antifa looks for violent confrontation under the guise of self defense or some such nonsense.
Antifia constantly demonstrates violence as a street tactic. Nazi's are scum. They are mirror images of hatred
The irony is that Antifa is arguably more Nazi-like than the white nationalists.
White nationalism is an ideology: it’s the notion that white [European, actually] culture is superior to other cultures. The Alt-right has a lot white nationalists in that sense. They think white culture should be preserved yada yada. The idea, in of itself, is fairly benign.
In fact, culture preservation is ‘a thing’ on the left. Black culture is celebrated, for example. Native American culture is too etc. In at least one sense, the alt right brand of white nationalism is a reaction to all of that.
Everyone wants their culture celebrated lol.
Hitler’s version of racial supremacy was much more virulent. In his ugly book he would go on about extolling the virtues of ‘Aryan’ culture; but most importantly, he was willing to take the next step. Everyone knows what followed.
Where Hitler’s ideas were found to be unpopular, his thugs would bash some heads. Other ideas were suppressed through violence and intimidation. Hitler rose to power, in large part, through violence and intimidation. Today, we call the use of violence to achieve a political objective ‘terrorism’.
Who does that most sound like?
