- Christopher HitchensPopulists (and "national socialists") look at the supposedly secret deals that run the world "behind the scenes". Child's play. Except that childishness is sinister in adults.
I can assure you, I don't use buzzfeed as my news source like certain folks here do. And just like the denial that theres something messed up happening in sweden right now, denial of nazi labeling doesn't wash when its used every day by the left to describe anyone supporting trump.

from the op:
I also didn't say buzzfeed.California Polytechnic State University - Around 1 p.m. on Thursday, a young man was punched by an unidentified person with a covered face in front of Robert E. Kennedy Library.
The young man was passing out fliers with neo-Nazi sentiment Wednesday in the same location. The fliers portrayed a Nazi symbol with the words, “American Nazi Party” and “Symbol of White Power.”

Yes yes, theres always gonna be people like that, you know, like seriel murderers. But lately it seems because of republicans gaining office again, the word has been thrown around a lot simply because its easier to call someone the N word rather then look what their saying objectively. People even called yiannopoulos a nazi.. sure he's fucked up and may have done things with underage people (shivers).. but just calling him a nazi is intellectually dishonest.

Is it okay to punch a communist then? They killed way more people all over the world than the Nazis ever did.
How about "capitalists"? Capitalist governments have killed millions of people too.
Cool? Seems kind of a false story. Were it worded with the "nazi" part it removed, it would just be a random assault. Adding "Neo-Nazi" to the story only serves to afford little sympathy for the... uh, nazi, I suppose.
No one should give a shit. Basically.
There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there always has been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that “my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge." - Isaac Asimov

If you push a button that finds you a 'random group' and it gives you a random group of people with random skill and random knowledge then you have no right to complain that a 'random group' button did what it was designed to do. The fault lies in your inability to make friends to play with instead of relying on a button designed to be random. It is a 'random group' button, not a 'best of the best' button.
