Seen a bunch of them marching up and down the street with guns in Phoenix, with no groups to protest and no one around except a Liberal New Times reporter who they immediately became agressive when he started asking them questions. Yes, they are also the enemy, just like the Weather Underground or SLA of the 70s.

Yes, Nazis are bad guys...very bad guys.

Although, the word "the" in the poll question would
seem to suggest that they are the only bad guys.

What group was carrying Nazi flags? And Confederate flags? And came dressed in body armor and helmets? With shields? To a rally?

Thank you. I think if you had read my posts you would have realized that I have condemned violence, over and over and over, ad nauseum.

Given the past posts by some on this board, I'm pleasantly surprised that the number of pro-Nazis votes isn't higher.

I consider pointing out a flaw in Nazis and Neo-Nazis, then someone deflecting to Antifa or some other radical left wing group without actually addressing the argument against Nazis to be a kind of soft support.

In the same way, deflecting to Nazis when Antifa is the group is a form of soft support as well.

All extremism should be rejected. Refusal to do so is enabling the problem.

No. Expressing outrage at two groups of bad people
does not diminish the level of outrage for either group.
