To be fair, a lot of people bandy about the word Nazi at people that have lovely, lovely opinions who probably aren't actually Nazis.

On the other hand a lot of these guys literally where swastika toting, Sieg Heiling, Nazi propaganda slogan shouting Hitlerites, so what the gently caress is anyone doing saying the fash bashers wouldn't be justified in bashing the fash in this case and saying "WELL THE TRUTH IS IN THE MIDDLE EH?" ?

If you watch PBS's Carrier, which you shouldn't because it will only piss you off, you get to see the story of an idiot enlistee who gets kicked out for racism. At one point during a shore leave a black petty officer had a heart to heart with him about how his worldview is hosed up and he has to stop blaming everything on his upbringing. Unfortunately he was too drunk to remember any of this, and continues being an idiot even after being shown a video of the conversation. He gets thrown out not long after that.

That's not even the worst thing in the show. That would be when this SARC (or whatever the Navy called it at the time) volunteer rapes someone, and she decides to tell her command that it was consensual so she doesn't wreck his career. At that point I did a bunch of swearing and turned that poo poo off forever. Also the music really sucks.
I vaguely remember the show interviewed one sailor who enlisted and wound up as a cook onboard the carrier and suffice to say she hated her job.

These American groups aren't real Nazis (mostly posers and fanbois) and have never posed an existential threat to democracy. Also antifa is violent at almost every event they show up to.

You just know that means he called his local recruiter and was like "I want to be tank commander. I will command a tank." and they were like "uh.... lol that's cool, wanna enlist little boy?" and then he did and then even that didn't work out.

Fun counter-intel story:

A mentally not well person wanted to kill Army officers, so he went to the recruiter and told him that he would like to join the Army so that he can be near Army officers so that he can kill them. Recruiter turned him away and called the FBI. So this guy goes to a different recruiter and says the same thing, and the recruiter signed him up for the Army and did not alert the FBI, lol. Then the FBI gave him fake bombs and now he's in prison.

The recruiter who called the FBI received a counseling statement. The recruiter who signed up the nutjob received an AAM.

Sic semper proditoribus.

Edit: gently caress, I've read too much of the OSHA thread to not worry about them getting the right cable for the job. Snap-back can kill and maim, especially with so many people standing so close...

Color me impressed with the FBI for outwitting and then entrapping a mentally ill moron. I feel like something dreadful is around the corner, like 9-11 and they're dicking around with some poo poo like this.
