Ha! Listening to this ep while checking BoingBoing, found this.

I’ve been saying it for years and I’ll say it again: Twitter is a cesspool of the worst of humanity and needs to go away. If you use it, stop being an enabler. Twitter has proven many, many times that it makes the world a worse place, despite any minor positives it may possess. Same goes for Facebook.

Maybe, but I am not sure the people he claims to represent would be able to parse out that distinction, or care a rat’s ass :slight_smile:

There were tons of Muslim collaborators with Nazis during WWII (ex The Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, Bosnian SS…) But modern day neo-nazis are Anti Muslim.

It’s best to consider neo nazis are the inbred successors to the 1940’s miscreants rather than their analogue.

The opposite is also true…

Modern day white supremacists embrace Slavic peoples now, because they see them as on the cutting edge of creating ethnically pure racial states or at least closer to it…

Some white supremacists admire non-white countries that they believe to be upholding the racial purity of their populations.

Surprisingly, Heimbach, as do many of the commenters who agreed with his pro-North sympathies, have done their homework. Many cite “The Cleanest Race” by North Korea scholar B.R. Myers (an occasional NK News contributor), as evidence the DPRK is an ally, not an enemy.

For those who haven’t read it, Myers’ argument is an interesting one: that North Korea’s political system, because of its roots in the Japanese Imperial Occupation of the Korean peninsula, is less comparable to a traditional communist, Marxist-Leninist state, but rather a fascist one. Look at the country’s militarism, Myers argues, or its fixation on racial purity: this isn’t a communist society.

Nick Fuentes, interviewed at CPAC 2019:

~ 00:02:07 “I’m not a White Nationalist, I’ve said that repeatedly.
At best I guess you’d call me a White majoritarian, I think even
that’s sorta, uh, not really appropriate.”

~ 00:02:18 “I think it’s important that the government should
maintain a white majority in the Country.”

According to a quick search, that loosely means “a face that just begs to be punched.”

Checks out.
