[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Gesture for White Power is pretty believable to me.

The movement has been pulling away from the skinhead image and toward "guy next door."

Blending in is a form of terrorism.  You never know who might hate you.

Separate but related note:  isn't Stephen Miller Jewish?[/quote]
Also....how could a Jew be a White Nationalist? Don't they hate Jews? [/quote]

There's some psychology theory somewhere about joining and even leading a threatening group as a security method.  Hitler is rumored to have been Jewish.

Gangs, terrorist groups, cults - recruitment preys on those who are isolated, ostracized, emotionally weak, seeking membership, etc.  There's probably some ritual that must be performed to show that you hate Jews and - yipppee, you're in!

You probably get extra clout in the Brotherhood of Losers for demonstrating self-hatred.  No greater proof that you belong.[/quote]

You posit people who join protest movements are actually afraid of the protest movement. Got it.

I despise Richard Spencer. Period. Full Stop.[/quote]

I'm not positing this is the reason people join - people join groups for all kinds of reasons.

The unfathomable is not the impossible.  These are the truest words I've read recently.  They come from this article[url=https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2017/11/the-nationalists-delusion/546356/][b]The Nationalist's Dilemma[/b][/url].  The writer was referring to the "ridiculous" belief that Trump supporters are racist, but it applies to the idea that a Jewish person would join a white power group.

Unfathomable?  For some people.  Impossible? Uh, no.[/quote]
