Where are The Bastards when you need’em? Pity they are merely fictional.

So do we hate nazis or not? The main ethos of nazis is Jew hatred, is Israel hatred. Are nazis saying the rapes, the murders of teens at a musical festival, the mutilations, the burning of children alive is justified because they are Jewish/Israeli .

here's a hint, if you agree with nazis you should probably rethink what you believe in.

Yeah, nah.

Israel is not Jewish people.

Israel is a right-wing colonial ethnostate enacting genocide.

Here’s a hint, if you think what Israel is doing to Palestinians is okay you need to rethink your life.

Something we're seeing in the closeness between those individuals and organisations vocally supporting said ethnonationalism and white supremacists. Be that Jonathan Greenblatt and the ADL and Musk in the US, or Avi Yemini and our various white supremacist and neo-nazi organisations right here in Melbourne.

"Ethnonationalist international" is quite the global phenomena at the moment. Up until they share a border anyway.

Nah, the main ethos of nazism is white supremacy. The hatred of Jewish people just popped up from Hitler pouring accelerant on centuries of severe pre-existing antisemitism.

Pretty sure the main ethos of the Nazis was wars of conquest with the aim of German imperialism and white supremacy. 3rd Reich and the myth/pseudo-science of the Arian race and all that. Their anti-jewish propaganda and genocide was a means to that end, as was their anti-Roma anti-communist, anti-gay persecutions and propaganda.
