I totally understand where you are coming from, but a similar reasoning would mean that, for example, organized feminists here are largely left-wing extremists allied with ANTIFA - which for one, here, are the main source of political violence. In other words, depending on how sharply one wants to frame things, more or less a bona fide domestic terrorist organization. I agree that anyone marching with neo-nazis are...well, worthy of most crap one can think of spouting at them, but such equivalences quickly spin out of control.
Only if they're marching in an ANTIFA sponsored, marked, and organized rally. If they're marching in a feminist rally, that was marked as a feminist rally and organized as such, they're not.
It's really not a hard concept unless you're trying to spin webs to trap people and distorting everything in the process.
"Spencer has popularized the term “alt-right” to describe the movement he leads. Spencer has said his dream is “a new society, an ethno-state that would be a gathering point for all Europeans,” and has called for “peaceful ethnic cleansing.”"
[...]
"But after dinner, when most journalists had already departed, Spencer rose and delivered a speech to his followers dripping with anti-Semitism, and leaving no doubt as to what he actually seeks. He referred to the mainstream media as “Lügenpresse,” a term he said he was borrowing from “the original German”; the Nazis used the word to attack their critics in the press.
“America was until this past generation a white country designed for ourselves and our posterity,” Spencer said. “It is our creation, it is our inheritance, and it belongs to us.” "

Dude's a fucking nazi that wants all minorities out of america. It's *really* not a hard question of what he is.
Yes, you finally got it, being a Nazi is the same as being part of a Cult that defends the genocide of millions. They even have a bible, it's called Mein Kampf.
It's fucking hilarious that you are trying to shame people for hating the Nazis, it makes you look like a complete looney.
Which they have happily done, several times. Marched in ANTIFA sponsored and organized rallies, that is, and that isn't only true for many organized feminists but also several of their leaders, as well as high ranking members of the Left Party, having seats in parliament. If we damn people for who they march with, and treat both as equals, there is no rescue for these people, no caveats to be used. So I agree, it's not a hard concept, and as you can see that kind of reasoning quickly spins out of control. I'm all for damning the ones marching with Nazis as absolute scumbags and whatever else, but using such equivalences are a dangerous thing, not unlike opening Pandora's box.
Not in the US, perhaps. Here, quite a few indeed. Usually more of the Occupy-type, but still.
