I bet you take the exact opposite argument point when "peaceful protesters" are marching with the Communist red flag or hammer and sickle, or wearing a Che shirt.......
YOu would lose your money, because I don't think that and just because I think you're a sociopath doesn't mean I like the sociopaths on the other side. YOur argument, conversely, is the same as ANTIFA "if you're not 100% the same as us, you're 100% racist/nazi/etc". Both are idiotic extremes. You, with your bloodlust for civil war, do as much disservice to the rest of America and its Constitution as they do. To me, you're both deserving of being flushed and forgotten.
I would say from that photograph, there is better then even odds the person is wearing that mask to protest the government "acting just like the National Socialists."
Bullshit, for reasons I've already stated.
Unlike you in England, we here in the USA still do legally have the right to free speech.
I'm American. What's different about me from you, is I'm not thirsting to kill other Americans who don't think like me, why? - because I value free speech. YOu want free speech to say your piece while advocating slaughter and murder of those who think differently to you. I don't. But please, school me on how your theo-fascist orgy of cleansing aligns with the Founding Fathers and the ideals for which Americans and Allied Forces fought the Nazis...
Most folks that display the symbol appropriated by the old German National Socialist party with their specific design of it, have about as much clue of the realities of that belief system as the young idiots walking around with Che shirts. In both cases they probably don't get that historically they would have been promptly sent to the camps/gulags.
I'd be willing to agree with this as a general statement, but some dude who goes out of his way to wear a Nazi face mask went looking for that and it wasn't because he accidentally stumbled on it. Your view on this asshole is the same as the asshole Mayor of Philly saying those rampaging black thugs were 'excitable' or 'some people did some things'. It just doesn't wash and says more about you than you probably care to show.
