The Nazis aren't even pretending anymore. I remember arguing with someone online long ago when I was younger who spouted mysoginistic comments. I don't remember his exact comments and words but I told him those views are Nazi views and then he threw the usual "you can't call someone you disagree with a Nazi". But he repeats some of Nazi-like slogans, anyway, in caps clock. I kept calling him out on it and retorted that that he'll wear the insult like a badge of honour, even though he implicitly insists he's not Nazi but throws Nazi-like slogans anyhow.
I was bewildered why would he say he's not a Nazi but says Nazi stuff anyway. Looking back now and where the world is heading, it was their psyops attempt to inject Nazi and fascist ideas to re-normalise them, while putting plausible deniability through bad faith arguments, during the time when it was very much taboo to be openly fascist. Now, they are coming out of the woodwork because Trump first enabled, then allowed them.
MAKE NAZIS AFRAID AGAIN
The trick is that it both is and isn't. For all the places where these clowns lack substance, these are the core ideas, playbooks, and slogans they adhere to. The names and branding are thrown away, that's all. It's all Nazism with the serial numbers filed off.
