tbf, every actual neo-nazi is probably doing everything they can to further piss off Israel. It's just a convenient opportunity is all, if someone is actually a hater.
They're not anywhere close to the majority, the majority just wants to save lives. But they're loud and sometimes clever, and good at hijacking other people's causes.
Both anti-semitism and anti-arabism exist, and both are bigotry, because all Jews and all Arabs are not the same, and will never all be the same. Any more than all Americans are the same.
It's a hard world though, right? Means we're going to need something better than simple, easy tools to wrestle with it. That's just how hard it is, and how little it cares about anyone's wishes for it to be simpler.
Too many people see the world in black and white. You are either good or evil. Every person is both good and evil, but the media and propagandists want you to see one side as pure evil. Obviously it works because I see these kinds of posts everywhere. I don't see it getting any better since everyone carries a handheld propaganda machine with them all the time.
So, in YOUR opinion, there are good things about Nazis. Good fucking job showing the world what you truly are.
I'm someone who knows that every person is both good and bad, and it's a struggle that every one has. Looking at things as black and white, and every human struggle as being a fight against good and evil is a very misplaced, and dangerous way of thinking.
