@JuliusGoat making some profound statements about Nazis, Neonazis, racism, oppression, and the Alt-Right.
"Historians have a word for Germans who joined the Nazi party, not because they hated Jews, but because out of a hope for restored patriotism, or a sense of economic anxiety, or a hope to preserve their religious values, or dislike of their opponents, or raw political opportunism, or convenience, or ignorance, or greed.
That word is "Nazi." Nobody cares about their motives anymore.
They joined what they joined. They lent their support and their moral approval. And, in so doing, they bound themselves to everything that came after. Who cares any more what particular knot they used in the binding?" @JuliusGoat

I called them Nazis because they believe what Nazis believe and say what Nazis say and act like Nazis act and they energize people in this country who actually call themselves Nazis and now when some of those Nazis actually run for public office they don't hesitate. That's why. @JuliusGoat

Fight Nazis. Don't join them. Sorry if this is controversial. @JuliusGoat
