He's basically an edge lord 4-channer, Nazi saluting to: "own the libs" is sort of on brand.
I don't think he's a dyed in the wool Führer-lover. I do think he's a hyper insecure, spoiled, man-child with enough ties to the far right to idolize "anti-social behavior" and think he's the hottest shit ever to pull off such a "based" stunt.
A poser; doing loser shit opening the door for someone/something much worse because his idiot brain thinks he's being cute.
You basically just described every fascist/Nazi ever while arguing that he's not really a Nazi just "edgy." Let's not make this same mistake again, hyper insecure spoiled man-children with enough ties to the far right to idolize anti-social behavior ARE NAZIS.
I'm not excusing behavior, far from it, but I'm not sure our modern problem children can be described with an 80 year old German political party. Far right, white supremest extremism is a now problem. These losers don't care if you call them a Nazi, it just means you "fell for it bro/got owned lib."
Call them what they are, not what they want to be.
I think the label “Nazi” is used not because it is the most accurate possible term, but because it communicates very efficiently.
I'm confused - wasn't far right, 'aryan' supremacy extremism a then problem too? Specifically 80 years ago in Germany?
Put it this way, if the forced labour camps were to start up tomorrow. Do you think this chud would be for or against them?
I'm not going to split hairs over what kind of fascist / fascism enabler he is. He did the salute, he boosts Nazis. Close enough.
